“…It is clear that social support is one of the important factors that can address stress in the workplace, so management needs to provide it to all workers irrespective of gender. There should also be measures taken to prevent conflicts between different departments, such as training programs, and improving organizational processes 40–43 …”

“…There should also be measures taken to prevent conflicts between different departments, such as training programs, and improving organizational processes. [40][41][42][43] Our study had certain limitations. First, our sample was convenient and the online survey was distributed in the Russian language, which can limit generalizability to the Kazakhstani population of business professionals, despite the widespread knowledge of Russian.…”

“…Similarly, for Podolefsky (1990) mediation is a process of conflict management in which a third party facilitates the negotiations between two parties but is limited to imposing an authority on a decision. According to Singer (1990), mediation is a form of third-party "outsider" assistance to the dispute, who has no power to make decisions for the parties.…”

Mediation is becoming a more peaceful and internationally accepted solution for solving conflicts. It is a dynamic and interactive process where a neutral third party that is the mediator assists disputing parties in resolving conflict. Normally, there is an assumption that the mediator will remain neutral. This thesis explores the neutral posture of the mediator when dealing with inter-cultural mediation. The purpose of this qualitative study was to investigate the understanding and implementation of neutrality of the intercultural mediator in practice. The research questions focused on the mediator’s perceptions, interpretations, conceptions, implementation and effectiveness of the neutrality posture at mediation. Ten face-to-face semi-structured interviews were conducted with intercultural mediators hailing from diverse geographical locations. Data were coded and analyzed through thematic analysis. The findings of the study revealed that intercultural mediators have different views of neutrality in mediation. Moreover, they adopt the meaning and posture of neutrality according to their self-determination in practice. An alternative discourse for this study should be to frame a standard meaning to the term of neutrality by giving its absolute significance in mediation.

“…There are many forms of ADR methods used to settle conflicts, including, but not limited to, mediation. Walker et al (2002) point out that mediation is widely used in divorce cases, employee–employer disputes, small commercial disputes, and many other areas of life where disagreements and conflicts arise, while Singer (1994) and Stephens (2011) both submit that mediation has emerged as a popular means of settling disputes. In a similar vein, Kian (2011) argues that mediation is increasingly being recognized as a practical tool to address disputes and as an alternative to traditional justice models such as time-consuming litigation and formal investigations that do not repair relationships.…”

Given the confrontational nature of citizen–police interactions, citizen complaints against the police are inevitable. In Trinidad and Tobago, citizen complaints are frequently ventilated via litigation or through a range of police-led and non-police-led investigations. However, it has been argued that these mechanisms for resolving citizen complaints against the police are ineffective. With this in mind, there is need for alternative mechanisms to resolve citizen complaints against police officers, and mediation has emerged as the leading contender. Despite the proclivity toward mediation, the phenomenon has attracted sparse scholarship in Trinidad and Tobago. As a result of this lacuna, this study employs a qualitative approach to measure (a) citizens preference for mediation or traditional mechanisms of complaint resolution and (b) citizens willingness to use mediation to resolve complaints against police officers in Trinidad and Tobago, if mediation becomes available.
