ADR Practical Guide No. 7:  Mediating Employment and Workplace disputes

Our London ADR team has launched the seventh guide in their series of ADR Practical Guides, designed to provide clients with essential practical guidance on various processes falling under the banner of alternative dispute resolution (ADR), with a particular focus on mediation.

Guide No. 7: ‘Mediating employment and workplace disputes’ outlines how mediation can be used to resolve disputes in the employment context and offers a number of practical tips for getting the best result. It also examines specific mediation and conciliation schemes offered in the UK by the Employment Tribunal and by Acas (the Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service).

Previous guides in the series can be found on our ADR webpage, including:

• No. 1: Common ADR processes - an overview
• No. 2: An introduction to mediation - what it is and how it works
• No. 3: When to mediate in a dispute
• No. 4: Selecting your mediator and drafting the mediation agreement
• No. 5: Preparing for mediation
• No. 6: Use of mediation with arbitration
