Mediation
In mediation the parties to an industrial dispute agree, usually with Agency assistance, joint terms of reference to be put to an independent mediator or mediation panel. The Agency appoints a mediator from its list of suitable independent persons. The mediator (acting alone or chairing a panel) considers written and oral submissions of the parties to the dispute. The mediator makes formal, non binding, proposals or recommendations intended to provide the parties with a basis for settlement of the dispute.
