劳动争议处理的调解机制及其影响因素分析

Analysis on Mediation Mechanism of Labor Disputes Resolution and its Factors

相较于仲裁而言,调解是一种低成本、高效率解决劳动争议的方法,不仅为劳动争议双方节约了大量的时间、金钱和精力,也节省了司法资源。仲裁调解作为劳动争议仲裁中的强制程序,在我国的劳动争议处理中发挥着重要的作用。本研究分析了可能影响该环节的关键因素,探讨了劳动争议案件特征、调解主体特征对劳动争议仲裁中调解结果的影响。随后,从北京市海淀区和昌平区两个劳动仲裁庭2007-2014年的裁决书和调解书中提取相关数据对理论模型进行实证检验。研究结果显示,在劳动争议案件特征维度中,案件诉求金额和劳动者委托律师代理会显著影响仲裁调解的结果;在调解主体特征维度中,企业所有制形式和仲裁员性别会显著影响仲裁调解的结果。
