Alternative Approach To Employment Law

"The new Employment Act 2008 which became law in April, and the reformulated ACAS code of practice which followed it, reflect an increased statutory emphasis on using alternative dispute resolution (ADR) in the workplace to reduce cases going to employment tribunals: ‘Employers and employees should always seek to resolve disciplinary and grievance issues in the workplace’; and, ‘where this is not possible, [they] should consider using an independent third party to help resolve the problem’."
