Abstract

Pre-trial resolution of individual labor disputes encompasses mechanisms designed to address conflicts between employees and employers before escalating to formal litigation. These mechanisms often include negotiation, mediation, labor dispute commissions and arbitration, aiming to provide efficient, cost-effective, and amicable solutions. Early intervention not only preserves workplace relationships but also reduces the burden on judicial systems. For instance, the International Labour Organization highlights various national approaches to pre-trial dispute resolution, emphasizing the role of labor tribunals and conciliation services in fostering equitable outcomes. Similarly, the Federal Service Impasses Panel in the United States offers guidance on procedures to resolve negotiation impasses, underscoring the importance of structured pre-trial interventions. Implementing effective pre-trial resolution strategies requires a comprehensive understanding of legal frameworks, cultural contexts, and the specific needs of the workforce, ensuring that disputes are managed constructively and efficiently.
