Grievance modified. The grievant's discharge for falsely claiming an illness when he was unable to switch days off with another Trooper was granted. The employer determined that the grievant made up an illness in order to extend his vacation by two days, but the Arbitrator concluded that the evidence was insufficient to establish just cause. The Arbitrator did find that the grievant had failed to properly alert his Employer of his illness when he became aware of it and the discipline was modified to a written warning.
