Mediation

The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission

Mediation is a fair and efficient process to help you resolve your employment disputes and reach an agreement. A neutral mediator assists you in reaching a voluntary, negotiated agreement. Choosing mediation to resolve employment discrimination disputes promotes a better work environment, reduces costs and works for the employer and the employee.

A few satisfied customers ...

"I was very satisfied with the process and I think all the managers would agree with that. The outcome was far better than anything that could have been obtained through administrative proceedings."
Mike Godfrey, Senior Vice President and General Counsel, FINA

"I have been involved in four separate mediations conducted by the EEOC. I think the process is effective and efficient, particularly when an employee is still employed by the respondent."
Julia Carter
Arizona Center for Disability Law

"Our resolution rate in mediation between the EEOC and state and local agencies is 70 percent resolution at the table, and that typically is in the one-day mediation stage. You get it done and focus on resolution."
Deborah Lilly,
Director of Fair Employment for Giant Food, Inc.
