The arbitration of last chance agreements
Article Abstract:
Controversy over the interpretation of last chance agreements between employees and employers are increasing as the agreements become more common. Last chance agreements are contracts between the employee, their union and the employer that set strict conditions for the employees return to work. Unions usually have to make concessions of employment rights for the employee to be kept on. Issues such as collective bargaining rights, the eventual termination of the employee, the severity of the restrictions in an agreement and the post-agreement actions of the employee all pose problems for arbitrators.
