Grievance Information Detail

Grievance GRANTED. Arbitrator found that the Employer violated Article 65 of the CBA when it denied meal expenses to the Grievant. Article 65 requires that such meal expenses will be paid when the employee is assigned to a location away from his regular work location. The Employer had been requiring that the employee be on travel status, which required an overnight stay. The Arbitrator found that the CBA contained no such requirement and ordered the Employer to reimburse the Grievant for his meal expenses.
