We have noticed an increasing number of Post-Decision Inquiries (PDIs) submitted by filers and responders who believe the arbitrator did not comment on a particular piece of evidence. We want to remind members that submitting a reason of “missed evidence” by the arbitrator does not qualify for a PDI.
We have created a quick reference sheet to help illustrate what constitutes a correctable error made by the arbitrator or AF and when to submit a PDI. Please save the link to this reference sheet for future use.
To render decisions that meet our memberships’ quality expectations, arbitrators must remain knowledgeable about AF rules, hearing procedures, and system functionality.
