Virtual Mediation During COVID-19

9th June 2020 @ 1:30 pm - 2:30 pm

Many organisations use mediation to help to resolve workplace disputes before they escalate to something more serious. Conflicting parties would normally sit with a trained, neutral mediator to work out a way forward, however in a Covid-19 world, mediation has had to move online. This session will cover how mediation works, how online mediation is different, and the challenges and benefits of using online mediation.

Graham Boyak from Scottish Mediation and Natalie O’Hare, HR consultant and workplace mediator, will take you through mediation from pre-meetings through to the five stages of a mediation, reflecting on what it’s like for everyone involved.
