The issue in this grievance is whether the grievant was improperly required to undergo a fitness-for-duty examination, including x-rays. After further review of this matter, we agreed that there was no national interpretive issue fairly presented as to the meaning and intent of Articles 14, 19 and 21 of the National Agreement. This is a local dispute over the application of Section 547 of the Employee and Labor Relations Manual. If the allegation, that the x-rays were unsafe for the grievant, persists; then this case can be handled in accordance with Article 14, Section 2. Accordingly, we agreed to remand this case to Step 3 for further consideration by the parties.
