CEDR mediators successfully resolve 89% of disputes.

CEDR’s Workplace Mediation services are uniquely placed to address the emotional, reputational and financial issues which are at the heart of workplace disputes. Through the use of workplace mediation, parties to disputes are able to reach fair and productive settlements which allow employees to feel safe and businesses to continue to prosper.

CEDR’s workplace mediators are experienced in working with parties to Workplace disputes with varying levels of complexity.

Here are some examples of CEDR’s workplace mediations:

  • Bullying and harassment – A complex class action against a top executive resolved; coached the executive thereafter to adapt their behaviour as part of the settlement
  • Disputes relating to sex and race discrimination involving senior employees where the amounts in dispute exceeded £1.5m.
  • A dispute relating to a claim of wrongful and unfair dismissal, where there were several issues including termination, bonus entitlement and share options, where the amount claimed was in excess of £890,000.
  • A dispute in the charity sector between employees with allegations of racism
  • A relationship breakdown between a CEO and Deputy CEO impacting performance.
  • A sex and race discrimination case with £1 million claim in Professional Services involving a female employee returning to work following maternity leave settled.
  • A dispute regarding disagreement of an application of TUPE to decommissioned employees resulting in savings of £100,000 per annum settled.
