The era of mediation has arrived and lawyers need to have an understanding of these issues.

The last Budget was the catalyst for the publication of the Gibbons review on Employment Tribunals which concluded that workplace dispute resolution procedures are not working.

The Gibbons review has called for an end to the 2004 Dispute Resolution Regulations and has recommended that a free system of resolution and mediation be made available in cases where early resolution may be possible. Courts are likely to reduce awards in cases where mediation is not considered.

Main points covered:

The different forms of ADR - Conciliation, Arbitration, Mediation
How mediation fits into the ADR arena and why it’s different from conciliation and arbitration
What are the trends underpinning the growth of mediation
What happens at a mediation? - case study & role play
The Gibbons Report on Employment Dispute Resolution Practice
How to prepare for an employment law mediation
Tactics - How to conduct a mediation as a solicitor
Dos and don'ts of the employment mediation
Techniques of the mediator and how to deal with them
