Findings

The Second Division of the Adjustment Board, upon the whole record and all the evidence, finds that:

The carrier or carriers and the employe or employes involved in this dispute are respectively carrier and employe within the meaning of the Railway Labor Act as approved June 21, 1934.

This Division of the Adjustment Board has jurisdiction over the dispute involved herein.



We have reviewed this entire record in this matter and taking into consideration the particular facts of this incident, it is our opinion that the Carrier erred when imposing a thirty (30) day deferred suspension on the Claimant. We would, therefore, order that the Carrier remove any reference of the thirty (30) day deferred suspension from Claimant's record.
