Salary Arbitration

Salary arbitration is a process where, when two parties—such as employees and employers or sports players and teams—disagree on compensation, they agree to submit their dispute to an independent third party. This arbiter reviews both sides' arguments and determines a fair salary or wage. The process is often quicker and more flexible than going to court and provides a binding decision, helping resolve disputes efficiently while ensuring that both sides have a say in the outcome.
