Final offer arbitration is designed to encourage both parties in a dispute, such as a union and management, to make reasonable offers. This is because an arbitrator chooses between the final offers of each side, motivating both to propose something that could be seen as fair and reasonable to avoid the risk of the arbitrator selecting the other party's offer.
