Article Abstract:

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission's (EEOC) policy statement of July 10, 1997, which opposed mandatory arbitration agreements in the workplace, represents a cynical view of the arbitration process. Mandatory arbitration solves disputes more quickly, at less cost and with more privacy than judicial resolution. Expert employee representation can balance any unfair advantage the employer may be presumed to have in arbitration.
