Industrial Arbitration proactively sets the agenda with regard to preventing or settling disputes that may arise between industrial employers and employee representatives with a view to preventing unnecessary legal actions.

This results in lower costs and eliminates unnecessary downtime. When viewed from any perspective, the benefits are enormous, ranging from a reduction in strikes or legal actions to healthy work environments. It gives the employee better bargaining power and prevents layoffs, thereby creating sustained relationships between the employer and employee.
