Prairie Farms’s Successful Defense of Employment Termination
Prairie Farms, as represented by Hesse Martone attorneys Andy Martone and Willie McGarry, successfully defended against Teamsters’s Local 525 its decision to terminate an employee based upon misrepresentation of illness and violation of its attendance policy. Local 525 of Chauffeurs, Teamsters, Warehousemen and Helpers represented the former employee, and claimed a violation of the Collective Bargaining Agreement. Arbitrator Cynthia Stanley issued her order denying Local 525’s claims on February 21.
