Abstract

This article explores alternative ways of resolving labour disputes through the analysis of relevant regulations of Ukraine and the Member States of the European Union, in particular, France, Bulgaria and Poland, and compares the relevant regulations in this area by contrasting the provisions of domestic and foreign legislation. The purpose of the article is to explore the ways to alternatively resolve labour disputes by analyzing the relevant legal doctrine and provisions of domestic and European law, to identify the advantages and disadvantages of such methods as mediation, conciliation, arbitration, to suggest ways to improve existing legislation. It is noted that the lack of proper legal regulation of alternative dispute resolution today is not the only. Thus, it emphasizes the need to train personnel who could perform the functions of mediators in labour disputes, as well as the need to conduct a comprehensive information policy to inform the public about the benefits of alternative dispute resolution as opposed to litigation, to which the author, in particular, relates the speed, efficiency and focus on maintaining labour relations. In addition, consideration is given to the feasibility of introducing mandatory pre-trial procedures for the settlement of labour disputes. The results of the study can be used for further research in the study of alternative ways of resolving labour disputes, and the formulated proposals can be used to improve existing legislation in the field of labour disputes. Keywords: a labor conflict, mediation, conciliation, arbitration courts, arbitration, a labor dispute commission.
