arbitration
(noun)
A process in which two or more parties use an adjudicator in order to resolve a dispute.
Examples of arbitration in the following topics:
-
Collective Bargaining
- These disputes then go to arbitration, which is similar to an informal court hearing.
- A neutral arbitrator makes a ruling as to whether the termination was unjust and whether other contract breaches occurred.
- If so, the arbitrator will order that the breach be corrected or remedied in some way.
-
Cooperative Strategy
- Contract negotiation involves determining whether all parties have realistic objectives; forming high-caliber negotiating teams; defining each partner's contributions and rewards as well as protecting any proprietary information; addressing termination clauses and penalties for poor performance; and highlighting the degree to which arbitration procedures are clearly stated and understood.
