Disparate Treatment. The Union contends that the State acted in a discriminatory manner by discharging the Grievant for dishonesty and falsification of records. In support of its claim of disparate treatment, the Union relies upon several episodes. The first situation involves Xxxxxx Xxxxx, a bargaining unit member who submitted a request for vacation in December, 1986 that was denied. She then called in absent on six (6) days in December while indicating that she wanted emergency vacation for the days in question. Xxxxx failed to submit verification and the request was denied. On February 4, 1987, Xxxxx submitted an emergency vacation request for the dates in December with a “work excuse" attached, signed by a doctor.

There are various considerations which might motivate parties to enter into a settlement agreement. These agreements are usually specifically applicable to the facts. That the State has entered into a settlement agreement concerning Young and might not do so in connection with another errant employee is within its discretion. Accordingly, the settlement agreement concerning Xxxxx is not entitled to any weight in this case. The Union also referred to an incident involving Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, a bargaining unit member. The State charged Xxxxxxx with excessive absenteeism and fraudulent documentation of absence for April 7 through April 13, 1989. Xxxxxxx apparently submitted a doctor’s note dat...
