The biggest reason why many people choose Mediation is privacy. Any discussions are protected by a confidentiality agreement, and you avoid airing the details of your conflict in the public forum of the courts. Mediation is a safe place to talk about whatever you need to talk about, without worrying about judgment or embarrassment.
Mediation is also typically much faster and less expensive than the traditional, adversarial approach. An agreement can be reached in weeks, rather than months. Mediation fees are typically lower than an attorney's, and fewer hours are involved in the process. Those parties who choose to also consult an attorney are better prepared, with most issues already resolved, and so need much less time with their attorney.
Among the top reasons that employers choose to terminate employees are personality clashes, gossip, interpersonal conflict, and inappropriate behavior or relationships at work. Closely following these reasons are poor job performance, chronically leaving early and arriving late, and performing personal tasks while at work.
Mediation is perfectly suited to address each of these issues, and more. The process has a high success rate in finding solutions that address these problems without the need for further disciplinary action, including termination. Mediation has the potential to improve a workplace environment, boost productivity, reduce potential employer liability, and improve a company's bottom line all at the same time, for a very modest investment.
