At ProMediate we have a wealth of experience in assisting businesses in resolving workplace disputes.
The recent news about the Home Secretary and “unintended bullying” highlights the issue that the outcome of grievances and complaints can sometimes be disappointing. In this case and others, where there is suspected bullying and the perpetrator does not understand the impact their behaviour is having on colleagues, workplace mediation is an ideal way to raise and deal with the issue sensitively, robustly and effectively. A workplace mediator can help to explain the effect of behaviour and hopefully encourage changes in behaviour, leading to staff retention and greater work satisfaction.
We also train civil and commercial mediators to be workplace mediators.
