DFR Dismissal Adopted

California Faculty Association (Wunder) (PERB Dec. No. 1889H) (Issued 3/1/07)

Employee alleged that the union violated its duty of fair representation by failing to take her grievance to arbitration. This is one of the rarer instances where a complaint actually issues on a DFR charge. In the proposed decision, the ALJ applied well-settled standards and found that the union’s decision not to advance the grievance to arbitration was honest and reasonable.
