Facts of the Case
Background
The respondent employee, a branch manager since 2006, was dismissed for failing to bank branch money daily over 15-day periods. An audit discovered unbanked cash, leading to disciplinary charges for violating the appellant's Code of Conduct. The arbitrator set aside the dismissal, ordering reinstatement with a warning instead.
