This exercise in micro management is doomed to disappoint.

By the standards of labour legislation it certainly isn't micro-management Tongue

And what is with this NAO conducting prosecutions?  Why do we need an arbitration officer? And a fine based on percentage of income seems curious and imprudent. What is really needed is the power of injunction.

I think arbitration works a lot better than the overly aggressive methods (used by both sides, obviously, though it's equally obvious which side has tended to be stronger) used to settle industrial disputes in America and also that it makes sense to reflect the reality of Atlasia; there's no point in declaring the establishment of an Arbitration Board or whathaveyou, it would just become a GM controlled phantom (ie; a phantom controlled phantom). The punishments are fairly arbitrary, but are mainly intended as a deterrent.
