Synopsis
|
Grievant was employed by Respondent as a Health Service Worker. Grievant has now resigned from employment. Respondent moved to dismiss the grievance as moot. As Grievant is retired, he is no longer subject to the conditions of employment he grieved and has been paid for the suspensions he grieved. All grievance claims are either moot or request relief wholly unavailable from the Grievance Board. Accordingly, the grievance is dismissed.
