Chipotle’s Mandatory Arbitration Agreements Are Backfiring

Is there any reason the same operation couldn’t be enacted in the future, as a legitimate strategy for psuedo-collective lawsuits? It seems like treating everything the same as a collective lawsuit, then executing it individually, makes for much stronger leverage against the company. In both scenarios where arbitration agreements exist, and don’t.

It sounds like a single entity is helping many workers take individual cases (under unique circumstances). This sounds just like a class-action lawsuit, except with extra steps.<p>If it proves worthwhile, it could potentially give workers an option to fight back against agreements that prevent class-action suits in the first place.<p>And with the economy structured as it is, we all certainly know the working class could use a win.

Question: what happens if Chipotle never pays the arbitration fees?
