Mediation

Mediation refers to the intervention in which a neutral third party tries to assist the principals in reaching agreement. The mediator usually holds meetings with each party to determine where each stands regarding its position, and then uses this information to find common ground for further bargaining. The mediator is always a go-between, without authority to dictate terms or make concessions.


Mediation is the dispute resolution process that uses a third party, called a mediator, to make recommendations for settling labor–management differences.


Mediation is a process by which an impartial person acceptable to both sides encourages them to communicate, bargain and work toward a satisfactory compromise.
