My company is trying to enroll everyone in a new dispute resolution policy. The gist is that the company and the employee agree to be bound to the decisions of a arbitrator, who the company pays for. The employee cannot be part of or initiate a class-action suit against the company, nor can they seek remedy in the court system.
We are allowed to opt-out, which is my inclination.
Apparently these are common? Does anyone have any experience dealing with a dispute that was required to go through arbitration?
