Contract Violations

Holding

There was not just cause to remove the Grievant from his position. The Grievant’s language on a radio call was a confrontational challenge which violated chain of command. Although the Grievant was in the wrong work area, he was not untruthful in reporting his whereabouts and his supervisors must accept some responsibility for the Grievant being unaware of the proper work area. The work rule regarding signing in and out of visits has not been evenly enforced, so the Employer needs to provide notice to employees before bringing enforcement of this rule in line. The Grievant shall be reinstated to his former position with a restoration of seniority, back pay (less the suspension and mitigated damages), lost overtime pay, and benefits. The grievance was MODIFIED.
