Overview: Many Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) schemes emerged in Australia during the 1980s in a wide range of jurisdictions. Tribunalbased ADR in Australian industrial relations represents an exception to these relatively recent developments as state and federal industrial tribunals have traditionally practiced conciliation and arbitration. This paper traces the development and opportunities for growth of private ADR as it has emerged in Australian workplaces through an examination of a range of contributing factors such as the legal and political environment; the decline of unionism; the growth of individual contracts; and the growth of management consultants.
