| Suppose as an engineering department manager a grievance concerning the interpretation of the collective bargaining agreement (the contract) is resolved by the arbitration process. If you disagree with the decision rendered by the arbitrator, what should be your response? |
| A) Comply with the decision, but immediately file a grievance of your own as a means of escalating the dispute. |
| B) Comply with the decision since the arbitrator's decision is "final and binding" as agreed upon by the collective bargaining agreement. |
| C) Ignore the decision and continue prior practices as business as usual since the decision is not binding, but only a recommendation. |
| D) Comply with the decision, but insure that the grieved employee suffers the consequences of filing a grievance. |
