I thought an outline might be helpful for you in analyzing your chosen arbitration case from the three provided, either Case 2. Your arbitration should follow this outline to be effective. 1) The issue to be arbitrated, 2) the timeline of events pursuant to the grievance, 3) the contractual provisions that apply, 4) Employee handbook language that may apply, 5) Other laws that may apply, 6) the position of management, 7) the position of the union, 8) proposed resolution of the arbitrator and 9) final and binding decision of the arbitrator.
