Synopsis
|
Grievant is employed as a full-time bus driver by
Respondent, Lewis County Board of Education. Grievant
stepped-up to an extracurricular run in the absence of the
regular driver. Grievant chose to leave the step-up
placement for a more lucrative one-time run and was barred
from resuming the step-up run. Lewis County
Transportation Department Practices and Procedures states
that a step-up driver must remain in the step-up position for
the duration of the regular driver’s absence. Grievant
contends that Respondent allows drivers to take more
lucrative runs and still return to their step-up runs. He
claims Code gives him the right to return to the step-up run.
Grievant did not prove Respondent acted improperly in
enforcing its written policy. Accordingly, this
grievance is DENIED.
