Mediation helps employees find long-lasting solutions to workplace conflicts. Through a voluntary and confidential process, mediators assist employees with communication so that each person has his or her concerns heard and addressed. The participants voluntarily reach agreement and decide on how to put the dispute to rest.

Mediation can help strengthen relationships, increase productivity and preserve the respect and dignity of the people involved in a dispute.

While mediation may not be appropriate in all situations. These types of workplace conflicts can be mediated successfully:

Personality Clashes

Lack of Communication

Perceived Inequities

How You Are Treated

Productivity Concerns

Procedural Disagreements
