https://www.citehr.com/91631-types-a...mportance.html Compulsory Arbitration is an tool of Joint Consultative Machinery formed for settlement of disputes of Central Government employees. It can not be synonymous to Adjudication the order passed of which is binding as judicial order. Regards, Madhu.T.K Hello Sir Thanks for your response; however, under the link you provided, the discussion is limited to 'Voluntary & Compulsary Arbitration'. If I understand you correctly, 'Comulsory Arbitration' arises
only in the case of Central/State Govt. employees? Also, is the Private sector free to refer any dispute to the Adjucatory machinery
comprising of Labour Courts, Industrial Tribunals and National Tribunals; or, they can
only do so after seeking approval from the appropriate Govt? Moreover, I understand that the awards given under Compulsary Arbitration are
binding on the parties to the dispute? You see, in many books on Labour Laws, the difference between Compulsary Arbitration and the Adjudicatory machinery hovers over a very fine line, and that adds to the confusion. I could also not come across any clarifying article on the net for the same so seeking the valuable help of veterans like you in the HR field in clarifying the points I mentioned above. Hope you don't mind, sir. Thanks&Regards Brandon
