Many trade dispute cases take so long to be finalized. The objective of the study was to investigate factors affecting efficient and timely settlement of industrial disputes in Tanzania. It was a field research which focused on present occurrences and it used cross section approach. This study has come up with findings on the factors that affect efficient and timely settlement of industrial disputes such as lack of training of the key players, lack of other resource such as finance and machinery, outdated laws etc. Findings gathered in this study show that the current administrative and litigation process in trade dispute settlement does not provide what was actually expected at the time of establishment. The Study concludes that the bottlenecks that cause delay and inefficiencies in settlement of trade dispute in Tanzania should be completely eliminated and the machinery responsible for settlement of trade disputes should be transformed and strengthened .It further recommends that an efficient system of trade dispute settlement should be established should be able to involve both the employee and the employer, capable of solving disputes efficiently and timely, come up with decision that are consistent with the law and should not involve a lot of costs in a due process.enManagementDisputes settlementIndustrial disputes settlementTanzaniaThesis
