How do arbitration clauses compare to 'no sue' clauses. By the second I mean contracts that state one party shall not sue the other for a given thing. As far as I know, 'no sue' clauses are unenforceable. It seems to me that arbitration clauses prevent workers from suing their employers which would essentially be a 'no sue' contract.

I don't think the courts would miss this, so I am probably wrong here somewhere. Would anyone care to correct me?

I'm curious about this too. I thought arbitration clauses meant that for the conditions listed in the contract, you have to go through arbitration and wave your rights in going through the courts.
