Special Board of Adiustment No. 956
PARTIES TO DISPUTE:
Brotherhood of Maintenance of Way Employees
and
New Jersey Transit Rail Operations, Inc.
STATEMENT OF CLAIM:
Appeal on behalf of *. Campbell from his dismissal.
FINDINGS:
Claimant, an employee with one year of service, was dismissed
for excessive absenteeism.
The record shows that after a number of formal notices of
absences and several deferred suspensions, his absences continued.
When he was again absent, without permission or persuasive
evidence of illness, he was charged with absenteeism.
Every employee has an obligation to provide steady protection
to his position. It is evident that claimant did not do so in
this case.
AWARDS Claim denied.
