INTEREST ARBITRATION $

CANCELLATION NOTICE AND FEE (if any): My per diem rate is $1,500 for grievance arbitrations arising under collective bargaining agreements as well as for work as a labor relations administrator, overseeing card checks or elections, or for other work in similar adjudicative capacities, with the exception of those proceedings that fall under the following categories, for which my per diem rate if $2,000: interest arbitration cases; employment arbitration cases; FLSA class or collective action grievance arbitrations; and other complex multiparty or class proceedings. The full per diem rate applies to all or any part of a hearing day. If a hearing day exceeds eight hours, then additional pro rata charges for the excess time may be made./// My per diem charges (rounded to the nearest half-day) are applied pro rata on the basis of an eight hour billed day to actual time spent in prehearing matters, in review of the record and briefs, in preparation of the Opinion and Award, and in any posthearing matters./// Per diem charges may be made on a pro rata basis for time spent traveling to and from the hearing. Charges are also made for actual and necessary expenses of travel, lodging, meals, and incidentals that may relate to the hearing. Personal automobile mileage expenses are charged at the then-current IRS rate. Additional charges may apply for cancellation or change fees associated with airfare purchases as nonrefundable travel. (Such purchases may be made when significantly less expensive than refundable travel unless the parties request otherwise.)/// The full per diem charge for scheduled dates of hearing is payable if I first receive notice of the cancellation or postponement less than 15 days prior to a scheduled hearing date of a single day or less than 30 days prior to the first of consecutively scheduled hearing dates (two or more consecutive dates reserved)./// Services are provided for the benefit of both parties. Liability for fees and expenses, therefore, is joint and several.
