(CARRIER'S FILE N0. TCU-D-2993/TCU FILE NO. 393-D8-136-R)

 1. Carrier, acting arbitrarly (sic), violated Rule 24 and other related rules of the Agreement when, by notice of November 4, 1988, it assessed discipline of a letter of reprimand against Claimant, Mr. Anthony Thomas.

3. Carrier shall now expunge the charges and discipline from Claimant's record."

 FINDINGS:
The Third 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 employes 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.

On May 6, 1988, Claimant was driving an electric cart, delivering commissary supplies, when the fiberglass cover on the cart fell and hit him on the head. Following a Hearing, Claimant received a formal reprimand when the Carrier concluded that he failed to report his injury until may 12, 1988. Claimant, for his part, testified that he reported the injury at approximately 2:00 P.M. on May 7, 1988, although he began to experience pain that morning. Carrier witnesses denied that Claimant mentioned being injured prior to May 12. Claimant did not prepare a written report of the injury until May 13, 1988, even though he stated at the Hearing that he understood that a report should be filled out regardless of the extent of the injury.
