Schafer, Dispute Resolution Coordinator Due to the high settlement rates and positive responses to the use of mediation in workers' compensation cases, the Commission has begun sending all cases to mediation upon the filing of a Form 33 Request for Hearing. To assist the parties in selecting a mediator, we are developing a roster of mediators which includes a summary of their background and experience. Please fill out the questionnaire below, and return this form to the Industrial Commission. If you do not complete it, you will still be one of our listed mediators, but you will not be included in the more descriptive roster. If you have any questions, please contact me at the above telephone number. Please also note that the revised mediator report forms that you will begin receiving ask for an estimate of the length of the hearing in those cases that are not settled in mediation. If your address or contact numbers are incorrect, please mark the changes on this form.
