Ledbetter - Cleaning Work Labor-Management Agreement Uniforms - DIGEST; Due to erroneous action of supervisory employee incurred expenses in amount of 180,73 in lauin- dcring his cook's whites during period April 1 through September 23, 1978. By agency regtla- tion and mandatory provision in labor-manage- ment agreement, Department of Army agreed to bear full expense of clqaiing special clothing that employees are required to use in accom- plidhing assigned dutieo. Agency grievance official found, in effect, that supervisor's action was in violation of mandatory provision of agreement. Since agency required employee to maintain work uniforms in claan condition, since he incurred additional expenses of laun- dering uniforms as direct result of erroneous action of supervisor contrary to agency regu- lation and labor-management agreement, and since Government would otherwise have incurred expenses in cleaning employee's uniforms, the claimed expenses of $180.73, which are reasona- ble and sufficiently documented, may be paid. This decision is in response to a request by Lieutenant Colonl A. E. Velez, Finance and Account- ing Officer, Headquarters, U.S. Army Signal Center and Fort Gordon, Fort Gordon, Georgia, Departnent of the Army, for a decision as to whether a voucher in the sum of $180.73, may be certified for payment.
