West, 14 OCB2d 12 (BCB 2021)

Petitioner alleged that the Union breached its duty of fair representation in violation of NYCCBL § 12-306(b)(3) by failing to accurately advise him whether he had to report for work, failing to properly represent him after he received a counseling memorandum related to his failure to report for work, and failing to challenge his ultimate termination. The Union and NYCHA separately argued that the Union did not breach its duty of fair representation. The Board found that Petitioner failed to establish that the Union violated the NYCCBL. Accordingly, the petition was dismissed.
