Scope note
Intervention in a dispute, especially between labor and management, by a neutral party who facilitates negotiations, examines the arguments of both sides, and proposes a solution, which, however, is not binding on the disputants. Distinguished from "arbitration" in which the neutral party has the authority to make a binding decision.
