Employee Issues

Unresolved employment disputes affect morale and motivation leading to loss of productivity.  
 
12.8 million days lost to work related stress, depression or anxiety*.
​Training replacement employees can cost £5,000.
Tribunals can be financially crippling and are detrimental to your reputation. 


We can help without costly solicitor bills. Our mediators are professionally trained and have been helping resolve issues in the Winchester district for over 18 years. These include allegations of:
  • bullying

Why it works

Independent agencies are successful when in-house mediation fails.
  • ​Management may feel they are not sufficiently experienced
  • One or both parties might be reluctant to reveal their feelings
  • Issues can quickly become too time-consuming to handle in-house​
Winchester Mediation Service has been helping to resolve workplace problems for over ten years, our clients including Winchester City Council and the NHS.

How it works

  1. Contact us to talk about the problem
    Once we've spoken to you, and only with your agreement, we will contact your place of work to listen to their viewpoint too.
  2. Meeting arranged with you, your employer and us
    If you both agree, this will be in a neutral venue such as a private room in a local community centre. Here, in an informal setting, everyone can discuss the problem in a calm and focused way.
  3. Mediator guided meeting takes place
    They use their skills to create an atmosphere in which you can both speak freely about the issues, hear each other’s viewpoint, and work together towards arriving at a mutually-agreed resolution.​
​The whole process can usually be completed in one day.

Confidentiality

The whole process is entirely voluntary, private and confidential. This means that when you and your employee have resolved the problem, only you and the mediators need know what has been discussed, or even that you’ve met at all.
