Synopsis Grievant is employed by Respondent as an Administrative Services Assistant I. Grievant asserts she was functionally demoted and harassed by agents of Respondent. Grievant seeks restoration of job duties and the end of harassment. Grievant’s alleged functional demotion claim is lacking in substantive merit. Grievant did not demonstrate that she had been harassed by the persons named in her statement of grievance or any other persons employed by Respondent. Grievant failed to meet her burden of proving her claims by a preponderance of the evidence. Accordingly, this grievance is DENIED.
