Grievant Company Treatment Discussion
Case Study 11-2, “Sleeping on the Job,” on pages 426-427 of the book. Then, answer the following questions:
- Should the company’s treatment of the grievant for the first two “sleeping on the job” incidents influence the outcome in this case? Explain.
- Did the Company have just cause to dismiss the grievant for violating safety rules when in each instance cited, the truck was out of gear with the safety brake on?
- Is the union’s argument that the grievant just appeared to be “sleeping” creditable in the absence of any testimony of support by the backhoe driver, a fellow union member?
