Introduction
The organizational potentiality and good will always focuses on the value of the
organizational reputations. Every organization always tried to avoid such situation, which may
cause damages or hamper on their reputation. In most of cases when such situation arises, where
the organization faced damages or hamper on their reputation, it also enforceable under the law
that are avoidable in same situation. When law enforcement becomes involved, the need may
arise to freeze systems as part of the evidence. There is also the likelihood that the incident will
become known publicly and not acceptable for the management of any organization (Burrell &
Morgan, 2017).
Discussion
According to the above statement, the law enforcement has emphasized for identification
of disputes in every organization. Sometimes publicly, the disputes have published. It may cause
damage to the reputation of the organizations (Burrell & Morgan, 2017).
While showing the wrong publicity, the management of the organisation make great
negative response. The management of the organisation must apply the actual policies, which
help them in the prevention of the occurrence of such negative images and identify the disputes.
It is the aim of the formulating policies to help in the enforcement of the law without involving
with the applicable enforcement policies (Moore, 2014). In the most of the cases, the negotiation
is the best option for prevention of the disputes. The management also take such opportunities to
deal with the negative images. In the negotiation, the aggrieved party and the management make
an agreement as the form of negotiation with the terms. It always process directly with both of

the parties. The arbitrator who conducted the agreement through the negotiation process always
makes it private and confidential ways (Cordner, 2016). Sometimes a third party also enter in the
negotiation process due to not able to make the solution by the other parties. Therefore, the third
party is called a mediator who helps to make the communication between the parties who come
for negotiation for solving the disputes. It is also applicable for the parties who have entered in
the agreement and not able to take the decisions. The mediator has no right to set up for a final
decision until and unless the other parties agree with the terms (Moore, 2014).
In that case, if the mediator is not successfully able to make a final decision or solve the
disputes then an arbitrator appointed for the arbitration process. It is a process, which is operated
outside of the court for settle down the disputes. The court has right to appoint arbitrator and they
can be appointed voluntarily. It is only possible when the parties want to continue the process in
same way. In the arbitration process arbitrator listen to both the parties and finally come for a
decision for the parties agreed the terms (Moore, 2014).
Conclusion
Therefore, according to the above decision it can be stated that the enforcement of law is
not always necessary for solving any disputes. In the organisation, it makes the conflicts with
their ethical standards and they assume that the involvement of law enforcement may disputes
their reputation and out of the court, it can be solved. The arbitration process is one of the helpful
ways where the aggrieved party can come for a negotiation with the organisation and it not
hampered their reputation and goodwill in the business market (Moore, 20014).
