HRPA's labour relations content describes grievance mediation as a voluntary, interest-based process in which a neutral facilitates settlement before arbitration. Mediation is specifically noted for saving time and cost by resolving disputes informally and quickly. While expedited arbitration can shorten timelines, it remains a formal, adjudicative process with associated costs; grievance arbitration is the standard, more time-consuming process; and the grievance procedure is the contractual step framework, not a standalone ADR method.

I’m leaning towards A) Expedited arbitration, but I recall that mediation is often preferred for its collaborative approach. It’s confusing!

I feel like grievance procedure could be a possibility too, but it seems more formal and might not save as much time or money as mediation.

I remember practicing a question similar to this, and I think expedited arbitration was mentioned as a faster option. But I’m not clear if it saves money like mediation does.

I think the answer might be B) Grievance mediation, but I'm not entirely sure. We discussed how mediation can help both sides come to an agreement without going to arbitration.
