While signing in to my employment website to view my pay info, I noticed that there was a new policy acknowledgement. From what I understood, if agreed upon, under almost any dispute between me and my employer would be resolved "only through binding arbitration". I don't have a ton of law experience or knowledge and know only some of the basics when it comes to advantages/disadvantages of using arbitration over the litigation process. At the end of the page, there was a section titled "Associate's Right To Opt Out", where one could send in writing to corporate that they did not agree to the arbitration agreement. Would it be to an employee's overall benefit to opt out? Wouldn't I be still able to use the arbitration process if I and company agreed upon it as well as have the option to use the court process?
An employee has 30 days to opt out upon receipt of the arbitration agreement. Any advice or input appreciated.What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
