Leiva, 9 OCB2d 11

Petitioner argued that DOHMH retaliated against her for protected union activity in violation of NYCCBL § 12-306(a)(1) and (3) by disciplining her, denying her request for a transfer, and failing to honor her direct deposit request. The City argues that Petitioner has not established a prima facie case and that it has demonstrated legitimate business reasons for DOHMH‟s actions. The Board found that Petitioner has not established a prima facie case of retaliation. Accordingly, the improper practice petition was dismissed.
