title:

It is suggested that further work on Labour mediation is focused on the following:  The GoG should strengthen administrative capacity of the mechanism and provide sufficient financial and human resources, including ensuring access to adequate number of mediators listed in the registry for timely appointment of the mediator; introduce adequate remuneration policies for mediators; cover mediation expenses throughout the entire mediation process and introduce continued education programs for mediators which will also focus on delineating specializations of mediators in different industries.  Create legislative guarantees in order to ensure direct participation of social partners in the appointment and assignment of the mediator to a specific dispute.  The GoG should develop a collective dispute prevention policy and the legislative framework which will establish the obligatory requirement to form collective agreements and provide fair terms and conditions in the agreements, in circumstances covered by law.  The GoG should develop policies to encourage social dialogue on industry and manufacturing level and create mechanisms at workplace for equal and fair dialogue between employees and employers.  The GoG should carry out an extensive information campaign in order to inform larger groups of employees about labour policies and the mediation mechanism.
