Navigating internal conflict can be a messy process and, if not managed properly, small issues can quickly escalate into significant problems. That is where workplace mediation services come in. Hiring an external and experienced workplace mediator ensures that conflicts are handled respectfully, timely and without bias. If you are experiencing workplace conflict, get in touch with our workplace mediation services in Perth today.
What Is Workplace Mediation?
Workplace mediation is a coordinated process led by either internal or external accredited mediators who support resolving a conflict. Workplace mediators create a respectful and confidential setting for parties involved to raise their concerns, explore solutions and come to a mutual agreement through an effective dispute resolution process.
Benefits of Workplace Mediation in Perth
1. Cost-Effective Conflict Resolution
If conflicts are not handled promptly, these can lead to costly legal issues down the line. Workplace mediation offers a cost-effective alternative, resolving conflicts before they begin to affect workplace culture and effectively avoiding litigation or formal grievances expenses.
2. Confidential and Impartial
Keeping workplace disputes confidential and impartial helps to maintain trust and morale within the team. Mediation ensures that all parties are treated fairly and that the company culture remains intact.
3. Fostering Better Workplace Relationships
Workplace mediation not only resolves immediate conflicts but also helps to strengthen working relationships. By encouraging a safe and respectful environment to have open discussions, workplace mediation can help rebuild trust and team dynamics.
4. Reducing Workplace Stress
Positive working relationships are essential for fostering teamwork. Unresolved conflicts can create tension and lead to a stressful work environment. Having a workplace mediator early on can help alleviate this stress and create a harmonious workplace.
Our Mediation Process
At E.L Blue, we like to take a holistic approach to the workplace mediation process. We begin with an initial consultation to assess the conflict and decide what the best course of action is. Before the mediation session, we conduct individual pre-mediation meetings with the respective parties to gain a better understanding of the conflict at hand.
The mediation session brings all parties together to discuss the issues respectfully and calmly. Our primary goal is to have all parties find common ground and resolve the conflicts in a way that meets everyone’s needs. After the mediation session, we conduct a follow-up to ensure that the discussed resolution has been implemented. Additionally, we offer conflict coaching to help your organisation establish clear processes for resolving future conflicts.
