1485 Norris v. International Union

Case No: 1485

2005

Norris was a relatively low seniority employee who had been placed on probation as a result of chronic absenteeism. When he violated the terms of his probation, he was properly subject to discharge. The International Representative’s decision not to appeal the Company’s denial of Norris’ grievance was clearly rational for his termination violated no provision of the collective bargaining agreement.
