If arbitration is so great for everyone we shouldn’t need provisions in employment contracts!

- Beldin 4y agoI understood parent as: "in case X is truly better than alternatives, people will choose X without being forced to" applied for X=arbitration.
- throwaway49490 4y agoHow will the employees enforce their choice if not by forcing the employer to put it into their employment contract?
- throw_m239339 4y ago> How will the employees enforce their choice if not by forcing the employer to put it into their employment contract? These provisions are forced onto employees by employer at first place. Put the choice in the contract. The employee is free to seek arbitration or not. Of course, you can always claim the employee isn't forced to sign that contract, but there is an obvious power imbalance in any case.
- throwaway49490 4y agoDepends on the kind of employee. I doubt that the one making $200k+ and options is forced to do anything.
- runnerup 4y agoWhenever I've gotten a job offer for $120k+ I desperately needed any job offer to keep food on the table and only got one offer and had to sign a variety of ridiculous contracts or else I'd become homeless. Occasionally I was already living out of my car and very thankful to get any offer at all. Just because my work is worth a lot, doesn't mean I have tons of opportunities falling out of the sky.
- throwaway49490 4y ago$120k is significantly less than $200k plus options. It's a lot but the position of the employee is indeed different.
- iinnPP 4y agoSo what about everyone else not making 200K plus options?
- throwaway49490 4y agoI don't know. But how is an employee going to enforce something if not by putting it in a contract?
