The benefits of the UAM include: (1) "UAM demonstrates from the outset a company's willingness to mediate on cases eligible for mediation - this may contribute to the ultimate satisfactory resolution of a matter; (2) With a UAM, the initial step of contacting the employer to see if they will mediate a particular charge is shortened or eliminated; (3) a UAM establishes a point of contact for the employer, thereby expediting the flow of information between the EEOC and the employer; (4) Fast tracking the information through established contact points expedites the scheduling of a mediation session; and (5) UAM's are flexible. They allow parties to opt out of mediation on a case by case basis if either believes the claim is not appropriate." (Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, nd)
SUMMARY and CONCLUSION
The Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) is preferred by the majority of those individuals who have participated in the process. The ADR process is one that greatly saves time and costs associated with litigation and with the unpredictable outcomes of court decisions in these type cases. ADR is clearly the best choice for settling any type of dispute whether it is in relation to employment disputes or disputes of another nature.
