Mediation
What is workplace mediation?
Workplace disagreements can deteriorate quickly when they are not handled properly. Unresolved disputes may breed toxic environments which can adversely affect staff morale and performance.
With Delphi’s professional and confidential mediation services, workplace issues can be resolved before a more formal approach is required, restoring positive working relationships.
Delphi is experienced in finding resolutions to unresolved disputes.
Call us on 0113 867 2815 for a mediation process that ends issues swiftly.
Conciliation
What is workplace conciliation?
If a grievance can’t be resolved through mediation, an employee may make an Employment Tribunal claim. Before their case can be accepted, however, both parties will be invited to take part in the ACAS Early Conciliation Process, which seeks to settle matters on an impartial basis.
Delphi can advise on the strengths, weaknesses and potential value of any claim brought against you and whether it would be beneficial to seek settlement through early conciliation, or to defend the matter at tribunal.
We can negotiate on your behalf via ACAS and, if appropriate, draft robust settlement terms to bring the matter to a satisfactory conclusion. If a settlement can’t be reached, we can prepare your case and represent you at an Employment Tribunal hearing.
SETTLEMENT AGREEMENTS
How can my business reach a Settlement Agreement with a staff member?
A Settlement Agreement (previously known as a Compromise Agreement) can be an alternative to the cost and stress of an Employment Tribunal hearing. Serious issues can be swiftly concluded via a legally binding contract.
Delphi can negotiate the terms of a Settlement Agreement for clients looking to bring closure to a workplace dispute. However, if not handled correctly, such negotiations can give rise to claims such as constructive unfair dismissal, discrimination etc.
