Arbitration interpretations

This video is based on a realistic but fictitious arbitration hearing involving a Nurse (Kevin) who received a disciplinary suspension as a penalty for alleged insubordinate behavior. You will observe the arbitration hearing and listen to the witnesses testimony. Your assignment is to take over the role of the neutral, third party arbitrator, decide how to rule on the case and to write the arbitration award.

In very simple terms (one or two sentences), what is the question before the arbitrator? You will hear the parties agree on this at the beginning of the arbitration hearing.

II. The positions of the parties:

Management’s position: Main bullet points

The Union’s position: Main bullet points

III. Discussion and the arbitrator’s opinion:

Go through each of the points above (in part II) for union and management and discuss your opinion on each point and summarize. This should be the lengthiest section of your paper.

IV. The arbitrator’s award:

A short statement (one or two sentences) awarding the case in favor of either the union or management or some combination of the two.

There are three possible outcomes from which you need to decide:

  • The grievance is sustained (the Union and the grievant prevail)
  • The grievance is denied (management prevails)
  • The grievance is sustained in part and denied in part (some form of a split decision)
