Read Case Study 11-2, "Sleeping on the Job," on pages 426-427 (ATTACHED) of your textbook. Then, answer the following questions:

1. Should the company's treatment of the grievant for the first two "sleeping on the job" incidents influence the outcome in this case? Explain.

2. Did the Company have just cause to dismiss the grievant for violating safety rules when in each instance cited, the truck was out of gear with the safety brake on?

3. Is the union's argument that the grievant just appeared to be "sleeping" creditable in the absence of any testimony of support by the backhoe driver, a fellow union member?

Your response should be a minimum of 200 words per question. All sources used, including the textbook, must be referenced; paraphrased and quoted material must have accompanying citations, and cited per APA guidelines.
