    Using Arbitration in Employment Law • Fire Away Episode 103

    In this episode of Fire Away, Stuart is joined by three guests for the first time; Mitchell Rose, Neena Gupta, and Ellen Low, to tackle a question that's been nagging employment lawyers for decades: why isn't arbitration used more in non-unionized employment disputes? They break down how arbitration works, how it differs from mediation and the court process, and why Med-Arb is gaining traction. The group also gets into the real advantages confidentiality, speed, choosing your own decision-maker and the honest downsides, including upfront costs and the uncertainty around enforceability of arbitration clauses in employment contracts. #employmentlaw #HRstrategy #Arbitration #Mediator Guest Mitchell Rose  https://www.linkedin.com/in/mrpc/ https://mitchellrose.ca Guest Ellen Low  https://www.linkedin.com/in/ellen-low-84bb2a1b/ https://www.torontohrlaw.com Guest Neena Gupta https://www.linkedin.com/in/neena-gupta-0107aa4/ https://gowlingwlg.com/en-ca/people/neena-gupta    At Rudner Law, we see employment relationships as an extension of your interpersonal ones.
