Does "devices" here refer to the "methods"?

Context:

It is incumbent on physicians as leaders in society to assert themselves in creative and dynamic ways in order to find mutually acceptable ethical methods for the settling of labour disputes in an equitable manner. Such devices, whether they be compulsory arbitration or special legislative or judicial committees, appropriately suited to each society, might then serve as examples for other public employees.
