Abstract

This study examines the determinants of arbitral decisions toward modifying employee discharge grievances. The data were obtained from published cases in the Bureau of National Affairs. Discriminant analysis was used as a means for identifying significant arbitral considerations. The results indicate that grievant's prior work record, mitigating circumstances and arbitrary action of management are the most significant issues considered by arbitrators in modifying employers' decisions.
