Case study:
in 2008, The TCM Group was invited to develop a pilot mediation scheme within BT Retail. BT Retail has around 18,000 employees and 20 million customers.
TCM delivered accredited mediator training for a team of internal mediators within the ER team in Newcastle.
During the pilot period, mediation was delivered in over 100 grievances and disputes. BT Retail reported a successful resolution in 95% of which in turn delivered a reported saving of in excess of £200,000. An ROI for BT in excess of 1000 per cent.
in 2010, on the back of this overwhelming success, BT invited TCM to roll mediation out across the entire group - covering some 100,000 employees.
The training and implementation is now well underway and BT are embedding mediation within all aspects of their people and HR systems.
