Varieties of Labor Courts: Is there a Best Model?

Abstract

Susan Corby

This article focuses on labor courts, most of which are ‘mixed’ in that a professional judge sits with lay judges. It traces the organization and operation of these courts in several countries, finding considerable variation. It also examines a range of criteria to determine labor court effectiveness. It concludes that effectiveness depends on the perception of the stakeholder and also on the criterion that is adopted: a labor court that scores highly on one criterion, May not do so on another. Accordingly, there is no best model.
