Alternative Dispute Mechanisms

The following is not meant to be legal advice.

 

What is an arbitration agreement?  It is a written contract in which two or more parties agree to advisory arbitration.  Many companies now include a clause on arbitration to settle workplace disputes.  Usually the employer agrees to bear the costs of the arbitrator’s fees and all other costs related to the arbitration for the employee. 

 

How does arbitration differ from litigation?  What is litigation?  A controversy before a court or in lay terms, a lawsuit, is commonly referred to as litigation.  A lawsuit is usually decided upon by a judge or jury in a court of law.  Litigation is one way in which people and companies resolve disputes. 

In employment law, litigation may involve issues relating to hiring discrimination, sexual harassment, workplace safety, worker’s compensation, medical leave, wrongful termination. 

 

How to avoid litigation?  Avoid litigation by using arbitration agreements, listening to employee complaints.
