[QUOTE="gandydancer, post: 498156, member: 9310"] "ARTICLE 4. STEWARDS ... Recognizing the importance of the role of the Union Steward in resolving problems or disputes between the Employer and its employees, the Employer reaffirms its commitment to the active involvement of union stewards in such processes in accordance with the terms of this Article. ... The Employer recognizes the employee's right to be given requested representation by a Steward, or the designated alternate, at such time as the employee reasonably contemplates disciplinary action. ... When requested by the Union or the employee, there shall be a steward present whenever the Employer meets with an employee concerning grievances or discipline ... In such cases, the meeting shall not be continued until the steward or alternate steward is present." A junior driver is neither a steward nor a designated alternate. My Secty-Treas (Local 278) has told me that it's not insubordination unless you refuse twice to work as directed in the presence of a steward. You're going to arbitration after deadlock at first level panel? Anyway, with your doc saying you were unable to work I'd think it was a slam dunk for you. Any disagreement from company doctors?
