Arbitration is a commonly used form of resolving disputes. While voluntary agreements to arbitration have been used in commercial disputes for many years, today’s employers are utilizing a different form of arbitration known as forced arbitration. Forced arbitration occurs when an employer conditions initial employment, continued employment, or important employment benefits on the employee’s agreement to arbitrate any future claims against the employer. Think about consulting a lawyer before you sign a forced arbitration clause so that your rights are protected.
