Description

This work begins with a general introduction to employment ADR, discussing such topics as where plaintiffs can better vindicate their rights, general employment law strategies, how to assess workplace disputes and conflicts, and options for resolution. Employers are offered valuable advice on how to implement a successful employment arbitration program, with real-life examples to work from. Mediation of employment conflicts and employment arbitration are explored and a comparison of the two is provided, including with respect to statutory employment conflicts. Topics include respectfulness in the workplace, bullying, racial and cultural conflicts, sexual harassment, Disabilities Act disputes, airline disputes, weight discrimination, and discrimination based on marriage and pregnancy. Lastly, this book takes a look at the U.S. Supreme Court decision 14 Penn Plaza LLC v. Pyett, where the Court clarified and reaffirmed the use of mandatory arbitration for resolution of workplace disputes.
