CASE NO. 81-ERA-5
In the Matter of
ROBERT N. JAENISCH
Complainant
v.
CHICAGO BRIDGE AND IRON COMPANY
Respondent
MEMORANDUM DECISION OF THE SECRETARY
Robert N. Jaenisch filed a complaint alleging that he was
discriminatorily discharged from his employment by the Chicago
Bridge and Iron Company because of activities to carry out the
purposes of the Energy Reorganization Act of 1974, as amended,
in violation of Section 210 of that Act (92 Stat. 2951; 42 U.S.C.
5851).
After a hearing before an Administrative Law Judge, the
Judge issued a recommended decision in which he found that
Jaenisch had not shown any discrimination against him by his
employer within the meaning of the Act and that no violation
of Section 210 of the Act was committed. The Judge therefore
recommended that the complaint be dismissed.
[Page 2]
On the basis of the entire record, it is my conclusion
that the findings of fact and conclusions of law contained
in the Administrative Law Judge's recommend decision, dated
May 18, 1981, are supported by the evidence in the record,
are in accordance with applicable law, and are proper, and I
adopt such decision as my own. Accordingly, I conclude that
the Chicago Bridge and Iron Company did not violate Section
210 of the Act as alleged, and the complain is hereby
dismissed.
Dated at Washington, D.C.
