The City challenged the arbitrability of a grievance alleging that it violated a DOHMH policy when it failed to pay overtime compensation to two FLSA non-exempt titles. The City asserts that there is no nexus between the grievance and the Agreement. The Board found that the Union established the requisite nexus. Accordingly, the City’s petition challenging arbitrability was denied, and the Union’s request for arbitration was granted.
