Local 633 Wins Unemployment Hearing for Manchester Police Employee
1/25/2012
Teamsters Local 633 representing Sister Donna Grady who was an employee
for the Police Department when she was terminated for alleged work place
violence incident involving a co-worker. Sister Grady at the urging of
her Business Agent Rick Laughton properly filed a grievance protesting
her unjust termination and that is moving forward in that arena.
Sister Grady also filed for unemployment compensation and was denied.
An appeal hearing was held before the New Hampshire Employment Security
Division on January 25, 2012 and Sister Grady was represented by Teamsters
Local 633 Business Agent Kevin Foley.
“I believe the Board made the proper decision given all the facts
and Claimants credible testimony that was involved in this case and there
was a very complete record in this regard. An isolated incident that
is not recurring in nature which arose out of embarrassment, coupled
with the good record of the employee does not always add up to “cause” or
just cause for discharge. At some point an assessment has to be made
and it was not. She will be paid unemployment compensation with retro
back pay to present and I believe she is very happy about that. It was
a team effort all the way around.” Said Business Agent Kevin Foley.
