What Is Arbitration?

Arbitration is a voluntary process that provides an alternative to litigation for resolving disputes, particularly in the context of labor and employment. The United States labor policy actively supports and encourages arbitration to resolve disagreements over the interpretation or application of collective bargaining agreements. This process offers a constructive and efficient approach to labor-management relations and is a cornerstone of many collective bargaining agreements.

In arbitration, a neutral third party—known as an arbitrator—reviews the facts, conducts hearings, and makes a binding decision based on the evidence and testimony presented. This method is particularly effective for labor relations disputes, as it promotes fairness, efficiency, and impartiality.
