Mediation, as a way of resolving disputes, including collective disputes, is associated with relatively small regulatory interference by the legislator, which is reflected by one of its features, i.e. a lack of formal constraints. Therefore, the question arises about the mediator’s role in resolving collective disputes. Undoubtedly, they must guarantee to be impartial, however, it should be remembered that parties to a collective dispute are its hosts. Hence, it seems that the importance of an appropriate mediation technique cannot be overstated and it can be concluded that it will have a decisive impact on the successful completion of mediation. Therefore, the mediator’s role is primarily to help the parties communicate so that the conflict does not escalate during the mediation process.
