Based on the outlined similarities between them, the thesis is argued that there are two parallel and overlapping mechanisms for settling these disputes. Therefore, there is an obvious need for the special Settlement of Collective Labor Disputes Act to clearly define which disputes can be resolved through the methods provided for in it, in particular labor arbitration, as well as to normatively determine the correlation between the procedures under the Settlement of Collective Labor Disputes Act and the Mediation Act. It is logical for legal entities and individuals to distrust the use of alternative dispute resolution mechanisms if they do not give them certainty that they will achieve a result like the judicial one.

The pandemic and the Russian-Ukrainian war have affected business activities and shaken the trade exchange. Problems have emerged with maintaining supply chains, maintaining production capacity, rising prices, difficulties in obtaining raw materials and components, financial liquidity, being cut off from eastern markets and the outflow of Ukrainian workers. Problems are also exacerbated by sanctions against Russia, which have caused price increases in energy raw materials, metals and food, as well as time and form of transportation. Entrepreneurs operating in the current realities are exposed to default, failure to pay on time, failure to meet obligations, changes in payment terms, setting new delivery schedules, negotiating insurance and credit terms, concluding and terminating trade agreements. Often the actions of other companies are not malicious, but are due to the fact of standstills and similar problems. Going to court is not the best solution due to the long time of hearings, costs and emerging mutual resentment. To continue operating on the same market, entrepreneurs should try to cooperate with each other and solve problems amicably. Mediation can be helpful in this regard, as it is cheaper than court trials, shorter and allows good relations and further cooperation. The purpose of the article is to show the economic problems of entrepreneurs, to show the new behavior of producers and to indicate the role of mediation in the key activities of enterprises in the context of the pandemic and the Russian Ukrainian war.
