Abstract
The following dissertation explores the legal implications of mediation and arbitration in Brazilian labor courts. It uses a mixed methodology from different sources, such as government data, surveys and literature. The surveys with lawyers had the purpose of highlighting that, although there is a specific law about alternatives for dispute resolution in Brazil, they are not easily implemented and/or haven’t been used, as they should have been in comparison with Ireland. Alternatives for dispute resolution come with many benefits that facilitate the process of solving an issue before having to go to court. This should mean that money is saved and, in some cases, the power is with the parts about the decision and there is less formality, secrecy, the judicial system is relieved, and so on.
