Frequently Asked Questions
Below are the answers to some common questions about mediation. If your question isn't answered, please email us!
Is an agreement enforceable in law?
Not usually. Agreements are a matter for the parties and the mediators. The contents of an agreement are confidential and unless it is essential to the success of an agreement, the employer or referring agencies will not be party to the details, and only so if parties to the agreement agree to details being disclosed. Mediation is a voluntary process and the outcomes rely on the goodwill of those involved to sustain them.
However, some agreements, such as Disability Rights cases, may be legally binding.
