Does NELA have a better option for a prospective employee to bring with him/her to the 'bargaining table'? I totally understand the need for an employer to want arbitration; it makes life simpler, takes less time and is less costly. Lawyers are expensive, especially when going to court. This may be a lawyer's job, but it is not the employer's job. He/She is running a business. Making arbitration fairer (more fair) is a better goal than just making it unenforceable because everyone needs to get on with their lives. Keeping this outcome in mind, a number of options are possible including arbitration, jury trial, or a golf shot for a million dollars. Take your pick.
