An Appeal from the Public Employees Relations Commission, L.T. Nos. 98-541, 98-942.

PER CURIAM.

The Department of Corrections appeals from a decision of the Public Employees Relations Commission, upholding findings and recommendations of a hearing officer that the appellees were improperly discharged from employment as correction officers and ordering their reinstatement. Because the factual findings are based upon ample, competent and substantial evidence in the record, the order is affirmed.
