Compare and contrast mediation and arbitration

What will be an ideal response?


Answer: If negotiations reach an impasse, outside help may be needed. Mediation and arbitration are examples of such outside help. Mediation brings in an impartial third party to study the situation, explore new options, improve communication, and make recommendations for resolution of the differences. However, mediation cannot provide a legally binding settlement.
When a legally binding settlement is needed, the negotiators may submit to arbitration–a process in which an impartial referee listens to both sides and then makes a judgment by accepting one side's view. In compulsory arbitration, the parties are required by a government agency to submit to arbitration; in voluntary arbitration, the parties agree on their own to use arbitration to settle their differences.
