Mediation in the Workplace saves Jobs and Money

How often do helping professionals deal with people in conflict within the workplace? Perhaps it it is “a personality clash”. Perhaps different interpretations of regulations or procedures. Or maybe there has been a serious breach of protocol by a boss and a grievance should issue, but the worker fears reprisals or impact on future plans for occupational advancement. How much time and money is lost because workers feel they are not being heard? How much stress related sick leave and how many WorkCover claims would not ensue if issues in the work place were dealt with in a timely and effective manner at an early stage?Brisbane Mediations’ mediators have experience in dealing with disputes of all kinds, including those which originate in the workplace. Even where there are multiple parties and stakeholders, we know we can make a difference, as we have done it on many occasions before. Large and small companies, government departments and organisations such as private and state schools and colleges as well as their employees have benefited from our interventions. We can work with support people who are not lawyers - for instance with psychologists who are supporting workers through conflictual situations in their employment. Your clients could benefit enormously from a collegial relationship between you and Brisbane Mediations. We help all involved save money and save face.
