Abstract

The Grievor was suspended, then terminated for stealing taxi chits for his own use. The Union claims that discharge was excessive in this case, considering the personal stresses on the Grievor at the time, and the Grievor's previous good record. The Union also grieves that the suspension was imposed without written notice as required by the Agreement. The Employer argues that the Grievor's act is a breach of trust such that the Employer-Employee relationship is broken beyond repair.
