Conflict Management & Conflict Resolution

Conflict management is the process of reducing the instances of threatening behaviour, aggression, harassment and violence in the workplace. This is achieved through a combination of effective workplace systems, design of the working environment and training to enable employees to act proactively.

Conflict resolution is a set of skills which can be used to lessen the impact of conflict when escalation occurs. Conflict management will reduce the instances of workplace violence, but will not eliminate them entirely; it is conflict resolution skills which will enable employees to avoid conflict escalating into physical aggression or violence.

Our Conflict Management & Resolution Course incorporates both sets of skills to enable both a reduction in the instances of conflict and also training in how to deal with conflict when it does occur.

Physical Intervention

The emphasis of all the training and services we deliver is on proactive prevention and resolution without resorting to any kind of physical contact.

Where there is a risk of physical aggression, employers must consider putting effective risk-reduction measures into place. Employees whose role demands that they have the capability to remove (escort) or restrain individuals, must receive adequate professional training to do so safely.

Our Physical Intervention Course teaches learners the importance of working as a team, using only professional techniques and applying our low-impact skills; designed specifically not to require strength, force or any form of pain-compliance to be effective.

Where employees are working alone or away from the support of colleagues or other suitably qualified persons, our Personal Safety for Lone Workers Course focuses on disengagement and break-away skills; to allow them to create space between themselves and an aggressor in order to ‘escape’ and / or seek help.
