Up to 40%
The Washington Business Journal reported that supervisors spend between 25 – 40% of their week addressing workplace conflicts.
That’s almost $30,000 of each supervisor’s salary spent on conflict resolution.
Up to 80%
Organisations that adopted a mediation process reported a 50 – 80% reduction in litigation costs (Stipanovvich, 2004).

  • Grievance and disciplinary procedures
  • Harassment and abuse issues
  • Unfair dismissals.
