Title: ●Arbitration Services | |
Abstract:
FMCS is proposing to revise the current arbitration regulation to (1) Clarify and shorten existing provisions and naming conventions and make other helpful style improvements; (2) eliminate redundancies and provisions that are never used in practice; (3) consolidate sections for ease of understanding and placement under appropriate headings; (4) update contact information and provisions regarding the use of technology; (5) reduce award submission requirements and reference an apprenticeship alternative for joining the Roster after completion of specified training; and (6) implement a modest increase in user fees that have remained unchanged for more than eight years. The increased fees more accurately reflect FMCS's costs of maintaining the Roster and the technology to support it, as well as responding to requests for arbitrator panels and biographical data. The arbitrator listing fee increase would only apply to arbitrators on the Roster for five or more years, reflecting the greater likelihood for more experienced arbitrators to be selected by parties. |
