Level 4 Binding Arbitration. In the event the Company’s or employee’s Covered Claims are not resolved at Levels 1 through 3, Level 4 provides for an independent third party to resolve Covered Claims on an expedited basis. The third party’s decision is final and binding on both the Company and employee. The DRP offers several benefits to employees and the Company: o Simple – The DRP process begins at the local level, where most workplace disputes can be resolved. o Quick resolution – The dispute can be resolved in days or months rather than years. o Independent third party – A neutral third party may work with the parties to resolve Covered Claims. If mediation is unsuccessful or if one of the parties elects to skip the mediation step, a neutral third-party arbitrator will make a decision that is final and binding on both the employee and Company. o Full remedies available – The arbitrator can award the same remedies as a court. o Economical – The DRP may avoid and will likely reduce expensive legal fees and court costs for everyone. o Little or no cost to employees – Hallmark pays the arbitrator’s fee. o Confidential – All proceedings are confidential.
