A CASE OF INSUBORDINATION Joe Kasko had been employed at Uptown Electric for thirty years. He began as a machinist apprentice and has now reached the level of senior machinist, which carries with it the top level of pay for line personnel. Although Joe’s evaluations reveal him generally to be a good worker and dependable employee, he has become a frustrated guy in a number of ways. For instance, despite his seniority, Joe is not a foreman. He was tried in that position a few times but just didn’t seem to fit. This seems to have made him resentful. Uptown Electric is a union shop and when the union was being organized, Joe was one of its most active supporters. He was elected shop steward, but even this leadership role was short lived. Fellow workers found Joe too rigid and authoritarian and felt he was downright cynical. He served only one term as shop steward. Lately, it seems that Joe must be handled with kid gloves. He seems to believe that the company owes him something for his long years of service. He also feels that theUnionis not always helping him to get the attention he deserves from the company. Joe has had his share of disciplinary problems over the years, and has received a few warnings and two or three short suspensions. As of now, however, there are no outstanding disciplinary actions in his file. On Monday, April 11 at ten o’clock, Steve Ramage, foreman of Joe’s section, noticed that he had not returned from his fifteen minute break, which had begun at nine thirty. Ramage found Joe in the employee lounge, smoking a cigarette. The lounge was a no smoking area. Ramage told him to put out the cigarette immediately and to get back to work. Joe answered with an obscenity and told the foreman he would go back when he had finished his cigarette. An argument ensued in which the foreman warned Joe that he would be disciplined if he failed to follow orders. Joe continued to resist and, as a result was immediately suspended without pay for the remainder of the day. Joe was advised to report to his foreman’s office at nine the next morning. When he did so, the foreman’s superior was present and the suspension was extended for three additional days. Joe filed an immediate grievance and union and company officials worked unsuccessfully to resolve the matter. The company contended that Joe Kasko had been insubordinate and that the union contract gave them the right to discipline employees. The union argued that the action did not conform to the disciplinary process that was outlined in the contract and that the resulting penalty was too harsh. Question: Since the parties are at an impasse, you have been called to arbitrate the matter. Consider the available evidence in the case, the positions of the two parties and the union contract (attached). Please rule on the grievance, citing specific reasons why you have reached such a decision. The answer needs to be detailed and specific. It needs to cover on organized labor and Contracts are all individual, but most contain five basic elements which are Unit Definition and Union Recognition , Wages and Benefits , Working Conditions. , Job Security , and Grievance Procedure.
