Synopsis Grievant was employed by Respondent as an Executive Secretary. Grievant was approved for a 15 percent pay increase in July 2016, but the same was never implemented. Grievant resigned her position effective August 26, 2016. On that same day, Grievant filed this grievance seeking payment of the additional sum of money she would have been paid had the pay increase been implemented as approved. Respondent did not dispute that Grievant was owed the pay increase, but asserted that Grievant’s calculation of the amount owed was incorrect. The parties do not dispute that Grievant received an additional $1,200.00 pay check in September 2014 that Respondent failed to recoup when she left employment. Grievant failed to prove her claims by a preponderance of the evidence. Therefore, this grievance is DENIED.
