Mediation is a process where a neutral and independent person (a mediator) helps the parties in a dispute to reach their own solution.If the parties resolve their dispute at the mediation, they may make a written agreement and have orders made by the Court to finalise the case.
Stage 1: Mediator's opening statement. Stage 2: Disputants' opening statements. Stage 3: Joint discussion. Stage 4: Private caucuses. Stage 5: Joint negotiation. Stage 6: Closure.
Mediation helps to discover the real issues in your workplace. Parties share information, which can lead to a better understanding of issues affecting the workplace. Mediation allows you to design your own solution. A neutral third party assists the parties in reaching a voluntary, mutually beneficial resolution.

Generally, each party needs to attend. When the parties have lawyers, the attorneys usually attend as well. If there are other people who are not officially part of the conflict but whose participation would be important in being able to reach a settlement or commit to one, their participation should be considered.
Parties should not interrupt each other; the mediator will give each party the opportunity to fully share their side of the story. After the opening statement, the mediator will give each side the opportunity to tell their story uninterrupted. Most often, the person who requested the mediation session will go first.
Planning. Before the mediation process begins, the mediator helps the parties decide where they should meet and who should be present. Mediator's introduction. Opening remarks. Joint discussion. Caucuses. Negotiation.
There are essentially 5 steps to a successful mediation. They are comprised of the introduction; statement of the problem; information gathering; identification of the problems; bargaining; and finally, settlement.
