Answer to Question 1

No such intent to preserve an individual's right to a judicial forum is evident in the text or legislative history of the ADEA. Moreover, compulsory arbitration does not improperly deprive claimants of the judicial forum provided for by the ADEA. Congress did not explicitly preclude arbitration or other nonjudicial claims resolutions; and the ADEA's flexible approach to claims resolution, which permits the EEOC to pursue informal resolution methods, suggests that out-of-court dispute resolution is consistent with the statutory scheme.
