Employment Matters - Employment Mediation
Conflicts between employees and their employers (current or previous) can be extremely damaging to a business’ reputation and costly for all parties involved if not handled efficiently and effectively.
These types of conflicts most often include reductions in force, wrongful terminations, sexual harrassment, discrimination, and internal investigations. Employees impacted by these conflicts have every right to a resolution but they also have the right to an efficient process, which, for most cases, may be achieved by meditation opposed to litigation or a legal trial.
As an Employee, why choose meditation?
No matter if you are a current or past employee, your time is valuable and while you should aim for a fair resolution, you should also aim to achieve that resolution in the most efficient way possible.
Oftentimes, businesses and large corporations have larger legal teams and funds allocated to protecting their reputation in the case of a legal conflict. While you shouldn’t be intimidated by this, you should keep this in mind when deciding what direction to take your conflict. Meditation offers an efficient alternative for litigation or a trial which will allow you to state your case, communicate your situation, and ideally to achieve a resolution you are happy with, all without taking the conflict to a courtroom.
As an Employer, why choose meditation?
A dispute with an unhappy employee (current or past) can be one of the most damaging conflicts for a business to face. If left unresolved, these conflicts can be extremely costly and time consuming and can ultimately cause a lot of damage to your business’ reputation.
In nearly all employment matter cases, it is in the best interest of the employer to attempt to resolve the case via mediation before elevating the case to litigation or a full legal trial. In this case, a mediator would give both parties the opportunity to communicate and negotiate while offering professional suggestions on resolutions.
You remain in full control of the process and you ultimately have the final decision in accepting or denying a resolution to the conflict.
