Post by mailman71 »

.we live in an era of 24hour news so why dont royal mailm management and the union go to acas and have the event covered by the news channels,this would one way or another tell the public who is spouting bulls-it and who is telling the truth,i know who my money would be on.

As I understand it ACAS rulings are binding on both parties, which is why RM management
don't want to go there.

Arbitration involves an impartial outsider being asked to make a decision on a dispute. The arbitrator makes a firm decision on a case based on the evidence presented by the parties. Arbitration is voluntary, so both sides must agree to go to arbitration; they should also agree in advance that they will abide by the arbitrator's decision.
