' MISSOURI PACIFIC RAILROAD COMPANY
STATEMENT
OF CLAIM: Claim of the Committee that:

1. Claim of Machine Operator Roosevelt Grant for eight

hours pay each work day and holiday, as well as any

overtime that he may have received beginning December 22,

1978, and continuing until reinstated to service with

seniority and vacation rights unimpaired, because Carrier

improperly dismissed him for failing to report a personal

injury of November 13, 1978, promptly, and carelessness

in conducting his duties.

FINDINGS: Claimant did not appear at the investigation and did not
contact any responsible official about it and it was
conducted purusant to proper contractual notice.

Evidence was adduced to sustain the charge, so there is no basis for sustaining the claim.

AWARD: Claim denied.
