Alternative Dispute Resolution

Where once Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) referred to an alter­native to the courts, ADR in the field of labour relations is increasingly being referred to as an alternative to arbitration.

ADR and IDR are recognized as giving the parties greater direct voice in fashioning remedies and more timely settlements.
