Synopsis
|
Grievant was employed by Respondent as an Economic Service Worker. Grievant protests her three-day suspension from employment. Respondent proved Grievant failed to comply with her supervisor’s directive to complete training and that it was justified in suspending her for three days for this failure pursuant to its policy. Grievant failed to prove that Respondent’s action was discriminatory, retaliatory, or untimely. Accordingly, the grievance is denied.
