InterMEDIATE Dispute Management Workplace Advocacy will make every endeavour to help you right now.

Most employers and service providers recognise the value their employees and clients, and given the chance, prefer to mediate respectfully and peacefully to resolve a dispute. Independent mediation is the preferred method to help parties identify and clarify their issues, hear and understand each person's situation, make agreements and resolve disputes quickly, peacefully and effectively. If mediation is still possible, please go to our workplace mediation page http://www.intermediate.com.au/workplace-mediation-program.html.

Mediation is not always appropriate. We recognise that not all disputes or parties are suited to this peaceful and cooperative method of dispute management. Unfortunately a few employers regard money and profit above the welfare of their workforce, and employees suffer as a result. When bullying, abuse, discrimination, unlawful and unfair dismissal happen, or where unsafe work practices result in workplace injuries, you may need help in making a claim, obtaining compensation or an apology. In these situations insurance companies, government agencies etc may not be cooperative in assisting you to resolve your issues. 

WE ACT QUICKLY - and you need to as well, Fair Work Australia has a 14 day limit for complaints to be registered, other commissions and tribunals will also have a limited amount of time for applications to be received.

When you need a strong and experienced advocate InterMEDIATE Dispute Management advocates can attend the appropriate commission or other forum, negotiate and act on your behalf so that you don't have to face it alone. Whether it be Fair Work Australia, Human Rights Commission, Workcover authority, insurance claims or others, we can act and negotiate on your behalf to help you to claim your entitlements and achieve peace of mind.

Every Australian employee has the right to work in an environment that is safe, where they are respected and one that is free from discrimination, bullying and illtreatment. Every Australian employee has the right to earn a fair wage. Every Australian employee has a right to work, knowing they are not going to be unlawfully dismissed, harassed, discriminated against, or bullied. Every Australian employee has the right to work in a safe environment, where their physical, mental, and emotional health is protected. InterMEDIATE Dispute Management workplace advocates will help you fight for your rights when your rights have been taken away from you.

There is much confusion over the changing industrial relations, Workcover and other employment rules and where to seek advice. Whether full time, part time, contractor or supplier, many people are unaware that they can bring a case for unlawful dismissal, discrimination, bullying, abuse against any employer, no matter the size of the company, organisation or government agency.

Advocacy does not constitute legal advice, and advocates cannot represent you in the court systems. We do have vast experience in dealing with employment disputes, and as workplace advocates, offer fast, effective resolution focused services. When required we can refer you to InterMEDIATE Dispute Management's Associates: lawyers and barristers.

If you need our help or more information about your workplace issues, simply give us a call, our caring professionals are ready to help you now.

*NO WIN / NO FEE. We take on the risk. That means that if you do not win, you do not pay for workplace advocacy. There is an initial once off administration charge of $300 to help us cover our costs, and some commissions may charge a nominal registration fee (usually around $60), which you will need to pay.
