- Title
Interest Arbitration under the Proposed Employee Free Choice Act: WHAT WE CAN LEARN FROM THE AMERICAN AND CANADIAN EXPERIENCES.
- Authors
HOH, RONALD
- Abstract
The proposed Employee Free Choice Act calls for interest arbitration to conclude a first collective bargaining agreement between a private-sector employer and a labor union if the parties cannot reach a negotiated agreement themselves. If the bill is enacted, the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service would be required to promulgate implementing regulations. This article responds to criticism of the bill using data from the U.S. and Canadian experience with interest arbitration. It also suggests how the FMCS could address these criticisms through regulations.
