Grievant is employed as a Utility Supervisor with the Division of Highways. Grievant was disciplined, for the second time, for similar behavior that was inappropriate and a violation of policy. Respondent met its burden of proof and demonstrated by preponderance of the evidence the allegations against the Grievant. The record did not support mitigation of the imposed suspension. This grievance is denied.
