Cost Effective Solutions to People Problems

Our aim is to provide you with a simple and effective process to resolve your problem. We will discuss the problem with you and appoint a mediator at an agreed fee. Our mediators are provided at a very competitive day rate, plus expenses. In almost every case only one day will be required to achieve a successful outcome.

Our services to employers include:

  • Investigation of breakdowns in the relationship between individuals or groups in the workplace
  • Formulation of measures to restore effective working relationships
  • Resolution of claims which have the potential to be heard at Employment Tribunal or are listed to be heard at Employment Tribunal
  • Advice and support to employers and individuals to minimise the risk of future difficulties
