Quizplus · Accepted Answer

While the other options list reasons why management may lose disciplinary arbitration cases, option D is incorrect. Arbitrators are neutral parties, and they base their decisions on the evidence presented and the terms of the collective agreement. While it is true that arbitrators may sometimes rule in favor of the union, this is not because of any inherent bias but rather because the union has shown that management did not follow due process or establish just cause for the discipline.
