☀️One of the main benefits of mediation is its cost-effectiveness. Compared to other forms of dispute resolution such as litigation or arbitration, mediation is relatively inexpensive. It also has a much shorter turnaround time, allowing business owners to move on from disputes quickly and focus on growing their businesses instead. ☀️Running a business is a full time job so how do you balance managing your time and carrying out a thorough workplace investigation, do you have the skills needed for a complex case? ☀️ Business owners don't want to waste their precious time and money being caught up in litigation. Mediation is confidential, the parties are in control, it’s a quicker process and it’s cheaper. ☀️Are you experiencing a high labour turnover? Are you addressing the concerns raised by your employees? A poor workplace culture requires attention immediately. Poor workplace culture reflects on employees performance, which in turns affects your business’ performance. ☀️Employees are the backbone of every organisation, but where do you turn to when conflict arises? How do you ensure conflict is dealt with the correct way ensuring employees are heard and the conflict they are experiencing is addressed. ☀️Unresolved conflict threatens the psychological safety of employees, management and the organisation. On an individual level, workplace conflict can result in the absence of psychological safety. Workplace conflict can ultimately cause the organisation's customer base to crumble. ☀️Workplace conflict can be expensive to resolve and costlier to ignore. Offering mediation at the first point of conflict supports employees to resolve the conflict sooner, saves relationships and reduces the cost of resolving conflict in the workplace. ☀️You are a small company and you do not have a department dedicated to HR. When you receive a workplace complaint from an employee, you have no idea where to turn or what to do with it. The law requires that workplace investigations be conducted by an impartial investigator who has the necessary knowledge, training and experience. ☀️Using an external mediator has many values, the main one being they are not connected to your organisation and therefor are seen as having greater impartiality when mediating a dispute.
