Resolve Conflicts Early, Protect Your Business, and Reclaim Leadership Time
Employment disputes are expensive: legal fees, leadership time, productivity loss, and reputational risk add up fast.
Employee relations cases are on the rise. ACAS reported a 19% increase in early conciliation notifications in 2025, while Single Employment Tribunal (ET) receipts increased by 33% over 12-months to September 2025. The average employment tribunal award now exceeds £15,000. That figure doesn’t include legal fees averaging £8,000-£12,000, management time, or the cultural damage that spreads across entire departments when disputes fester.
For mid-market organisations without dedicated ER teams, a single grievance can consume 40+ hours of leadership bandwidth. Multiply that across open cases, and you’re looking at paralysed decision-making, burnt-out managers, and high performers watching the door.
Traditional reactive approaches wait until conflicts explode into formal grievances. By then, relationships are broken, legal risk is locked in, and resolution costs skyrocket. You need a different strategy.
Kinhub transforms workplace mediation from crisis management into proactive prevention. Our Work-Life Intelligence™ platform combines AI-powered early warning systems with expert-designed intervention frameworks that resolve disputes fast, fairly, and with a higher probability of the dispute being resolved permanently.
Every week an ER case stays open:
The question isn’t whether you can afford Kinhub. It’s whether you can afford another quarter of spiralling ER costs, burnt-out managers, and preventable tribunal claims.
