What Is an Employee Arbitration Agreement?

An Employee Arbitration Agreement is a document that an employer prepares and provides to their employees at the moment of their employment. This agreement requires an employee to resolve all the disputes and claims that can appear during their employment relationship through employee arbitration.

Alternate Name:

  • Employee Arbitration Contract.

By signing this document, an employee waives their right to apply to a court on these issues. Appeal to arbitration, based on this agreement, provides the employer with the following advantages:

  1. Arbitrations are not subject to public records, and an employee can not use evidence from an employee's previous cases.
  2. Arbitrations are based on the decision of one arbitrator.
  3. An employee can not appeal against the arbitration rulings.
