What happens when I participate in mediation but am unable to resolve some of the issues in dispute?
After you have participated in mediation with your employer and unfortunately are unable to reconcile all of the differences at the conclusion of the mediation we would summarize the issues resolved and those that remain in contention. We would recommend and provide suggestions such as reaching a consensus on the issues not resolved thereby improving the working relationship with your employer enabling both parties to move forward without further disruption from an unresolved issue. However, if you become aware of sudden changes in your terms and conditions and privileges of employment and perceive these changes as reprisal or retaliation for participating in the mediation it may be necessary to resume mediation on those issues perceived as retaliatory and may revisit those issues that were not previously resolved to determine if there is a nexus between the two experiences.
