Grievance Information Detail
DENIED: Employer's denial of the Grievant's request(s) based on “operational needs” were reasonably related to staffing considerations and were consistent with the Collective Bargaining Agreement. Moreover, as such, the denial thereof is not found to have been “…solely for financial reasons…” as recognized in Beck. Accordingly, there simply exists no evidentiary basis to grant the relief sought by the Union herein. As such, the Grievance must be, and therefore is, Denied.
