Organization leaders are responsible for creating a work environment where employees love to give their best and work together. Yet, in reality, disagreements and differences of opinion often occur and escalate into interpersonal conflict thus wasting time, productivity and eroding a healthy work culture. In order to uphold teamwork and a healthy culture, immediate interventions are critical in absolving conflict-ridden situations.  We believe that conflict is best resolved when a third party is involved as it creates a neutral platform with no vested interests. Using the CliftonStrengths Finder tool, we facilitate a dialogue that is in the interest of both parties so that they feel heard, understood and equipped with the tools to negotiate conflict situations in the future. Allow OHS to restore peace and productivity to your work culture.

During uncertain and difficult economic times, restructuring, temporary lay-offs, retrenchments or any unsuccessful union negotiations may have a damaging and paralysing effect on employers and on employees. Companies must therefore ensure that this traumatic experience is not aggravated by delays, errors or complications with the process. Engaging in these actions in an informed, sound and transparent manner will create less conflict, maintain fairness and build stronger employer-employee relations that will be key to the success of any business. Our services include facilitating union negotiations as well as facilitating retrenchment, temporary lay-offs or restructuring processes. Allow OHS to walk you through the tough stuff that is labour relations.
