Synopsis Grievant has been employed by Respondent as a bus operator since 2001. Grievant worked for the prior 15 years as a bus operator in Maryland. This grievance is premised on Respondent not crediting Grievant for any of her work experience in Maryland in calculating her pay. Respondent has a policy of crediting employees only for prior in-state experience. Grievant has known since she was hired that Respondent was not crediting her for her Maryland work experience. Respondent filed a motion to dismiss at level 1. Respondent proved by a preponderance of the evidence that the grievance was filed untimely. Grievant failed to prove that she had a proper basis to excuse her untimely filing. Accordingly, the grievance is dismissed.
