SETTLEMENT WITHOUT STATE INTERVENTION

There are two ways in which the basic parties to

an industrial dispute- the employer and the
employees- can settle their disputes.
Collective bargaining
Voluntary arbitration

COLLECTIVE BARGAINING
Collective bargaining implies the following main steps:
1- Presentation in a collective manner, to the employer,
their demands and grievances by the employees;
2- Discussions and negotiations on the basis of mutual
give and take for settling the grievances and fulfilling the
demands;

CONT
3-

Signing of a formal agreement or an informal understanding

when negotiations result in mutual satisfaction;
4- In the event of failure of negotiations, a likely resort to
strike or lock-out to force the recalcitrant party to come to
terms.

When collective negotiations reach a deadlock, the parties

themselves may call in third persons to help them settle their
disputes.

The role of this third person is to break the deadlock, to

interpret the view point of one to the other, and thereby to
help the parties arrive at an agreement.

VOLUNTARY ARBITRATION

In many cases an argument simply cannot be

settled as both parties disagree on their own
grounds. They therefore enter into Voluntary
Arbitration, which involves appointing an
independent party to assess the situation and then
make a decision based on the facts presented to
them.
It is commonly viewed as less expensive and
faster than resolving a dispute in court.
An arbitrator may be a single person or a panel.

VOLUNTARY ARBITRATION

At the time of submitting a dispute to arbitration,

the parties may agree in advance, to abide by the
award of the arbitrator and thus industrial peace is
maintained and the dispute is resolved.
Sometimes, however, the parties may agree to
submit the dispute to an arbitrator but at the same
time, reserve their right to accept or reject the
award when it comes.
