The Grievor was suspended and then terminated for culminating incidents of performance failures. The Union requests the Grievor be reinstated with full seniority and compensated for all lost pay and benefits.

The Union's position is that in continuing to employ him under those circumstances, the Employer is in breach of the Collective Agreement and requests an order that the Employer terminate this employee if he does not become a member.
