Alternative Dispute Resolution in the Workplace
Editorial Reviews
Review
“...the book will interest practitioners and union activists. They will find much of value in its detailed case studies of ADR adapters (Federal Express, Rockwell, Continental Airlines, etc.), and its array of model ADR language....As it is initiated, designed, and financed by employers, many of whom ask their employees to thereafter sign away their right to litigate, ADR is likely to grow in significance and controversy. This well-written volume is a fine overview of the matter.”–Labor Studies Journal
Book Description
With the explosion of workplace litigation and the skyrocketing costs associated with it, employers in both the private and public sectors are seeking new ways to swiftly and inexpensively resolve disputes with their employees. Alternative dispute resolution (ADR) procedures offer ways to do this and, according to recent reports, more than 100 major corporations have made use of them. Not only are the costs of trying a workplace dispute before a jury avoided, but also due process requirements have been observed. McDermott and Berkeley introduce executives to ADR, how it's done, and its benefits. This book will be interesting and important reading for executives and for legal counsel that may be unfamiliar with ADR.
