How unions and management can work together

In 2009, East Sussex County Council announced productivity savings of £500,000 from the implementation of an in-house mediation scheme. The success of the scheme was only made possible because of collaborative working between the unions and management. This included representatives from each being trained together as mediators. This session will focus on how this remarkable achievement happened and how other organisations can learn from what East Sussex did.
