Labor Arbitration – Maximizing Your Chances for Success
Presented by Kara Maciel and Mark Trapp
Labor arbitrations often seem like the proverbial “box of chocolates” – you never know what you’re going to get. While uncertainty abounds, there are numerous steps companies and counsel can take to assess, prepare, and present their labor arbitration cases to maximize the chances for success.
Personnel directly involved in handling grievances and preparing and presenting cases before labor arbitrators – including front line supervisors, human resources officials, and in-house counsel – will gain valuable insights and learn practical strategies to enhance the company’s chances of prevailing and improving your workplace.
Participants in this webinar will learn:
- Best practices for contract administration and handling grievances

- Strategies to assess the strengths and weaknesses of your case, select the arbitrator, and prepare and present your witnesses and evidence
