Conflict Resolution: How employers are tackling bullying and harassment at work

Conflict resolution is a topical issue in HR this month. Research by the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD) highlighted a disconnect between the employer’s perception of successful conflict resolution (namely grievance issues) and the employee’s perspective which falls short of this.

The report analyses data from both employers and employees to evaluate the prevalence of unhealthy conflict in UK workplaces and its impact on individuals and organisations. By examining the current landscape and latest data, the report also offers recommendations on how organisations can improve their approach to workplace conflict resolution. These include:

  • Build a positive employment relations climate.
  • Promote inclusive policies and practices.
  • Ensure leaders treat conflict resolution as a strategic priority.
  • Communicate effective reporting channels.
  • Implement a framework based on early conflict resolution.
  • Develop employee relations (ER) skills for people professionals.
  • Train and support people managers.
