Main Body
The term restorative justice means the harm by crime or conflicts and those who responsible for the harm into communication enabling everyone affected by the incident to play a part in repairing that and finding a positive way for such type of incident. At the workplace, when conflicts arise and people experience inappropriate behavior at work, then such activities affect the relationship between them and the whole team is going to suffer from such issues.
Issues and solutions in the context of restorative practice:
Some of the major issues which are majorly finding out at the workplace are like abusing, inappropriate behavior, etc. all such factors arise the disputes between in the employees. This affects the business's effectiveness totally and some times the whole team is going to suffer from such issues. For solving out such issues dispute resolutions are used which helps in solving out the conflicts which occur. In this concern, restorative practice is used which helps in prevent this happening at the workplace and enabling all the employees and workers to work together in a well and appropriate manner.
In an organization, it is the major duty of a team leader to monitor out all the issues which arise between the employees. And another important duty of the team leader is just to sort out the issue which enables the whole company to suffer from such crises [ Allee T, Peinhardt C.

Another major issue in an organization is might be bullying and discrimination. This affects the behavior of an individual badly. Discrimination is an unlawful activity and it is considered as criminal activity. The person who did this activity is an offender and be punishable by the government according to the legislation.
Court and the board of the company play the role of the third party which helps in solving out such types of crises in an organization. By using the proper restorative approach it is helpful in meeting the change in transformational change in their lives.

- Crime causes harm and justice have to focus on such issues through which the harm actually happens. So management has to work on such issues like discrimination,
- The person who gets affected by the activity has to actively participate in the process of resolution. It helps in making the activity effective and it becomes able to explain everything in a proper manner.
- The major task of the government/management is just to make proper order and law. And the communities have to build peace.
Management of each and every organization has to analyze the activity and the criminal offender who done that crime. Also, the person whom with that cause happen have to actively participate in the process of justice. This helps in creating the whole discussion successful and it also helps in finding out the needs of an individual with the help of the negotiation process which is to be included under the lawful activity [ Fassin D, Pandolfi M, editors.
