Important Information About Procedures for Opening a New Account To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial organizations to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. What this means for you: When you open an account, you are required to provide your name, residential address, date of birth, and identification number. We may require other information that will allow us to identify you.
Formal Grievance Procedure If the matter has not been disposed of informally, an employee having a complaint concerning any condition of employment within the authority of the Board of Education may, within a reasonable period not to exceed 75 days following the action complained of, present such complaint as a grievance in accordance with the provisions of this grievance procedure. Complaints concerning matters which are not within the authority of the Board should be presented in accordance with the review procedures of the agency having authority over such matters. The grievance procedure does not apply to complaints concerning out-of-title work except that a complaint by an employee that he/she has been assigned continuously after September 1, 1974 for three months or more to the general duties and responsibilities prescribed for a higher school lunch title is subject to the grievance procedure. Other complaints as to out-of-title work are to be referred to the Executive Director, Division of Human Resources. It is understood, however, that complaints of employees in title against out-of-title assignments made to other employees are subject to the grievance procedure. If a group of employees has the same complaint, a member of the group may present the grievance in the group's behalf under this procedure. The Union has the right to initiate or appeal a grievance involving alleged violation of any term of this Agreement. Such grievance shall be initiated within a reasonable period of time with the Administrator of the Office of School Food Services, or with such other Board official as may be appropriate. Grievances arising from the action of officials other than the head of a school shall be initiated with and processed by such officials in accordance with the provisions of Step 2 of this grievance procedure.
Informal Grievance Procedure Any employee who has a problem or complaint should first attempt resolution through discussion with his/her immediate superior without undue delay. It is strongly recommended, but not required, that grievances be documented in writing along with any responses at the informal level. Informal discussions shall be initiated within twenty-one (21) calendar days from the date of the incident. If after discussions with the employee’s immediate supervisor, the employee does not believe the problem has been satisfactorily resolved, the employee shall have the right to discuss the problem with their department head. Every effort should be made to find an acceptable solution by informal means at the lowest possible level of supervision. If the employee is not in agreement with the decision reached through discussion, the employee shall have the right to file a formal grievance in writing within ten (10) calendar days after receiving the informal decision.
Deviation from Grievance Procedure The Employer agrees that, after a grievance has been initiated by the Union at Step 2, the Employer's representatives will not enter into discussion or negotiation with respect to the grievance, either directly or indirectly with the aggrieved employee without the consent of the Union. In the event that after having initiated a grievance through the grievance procedure, an employee endeavours to pursue the same grievance through any other channel, then the Union agrees that, pursuant to this article, the grievance shall be considered to have been abandoned.
Grievance Processing Union stewards or Union officials shall be permitted to have time off without loss of pay for the investigation and processing of grievances and arbitrations. Requests for such time off shall be made in advance and shall not be unreasonably denied. The Union will furnish the Employer with a list of Union stewards and their jurisdictions. The Union shall delineate the jurisdiction of Union stewards so that no xxxxxxx need travel between work locations or sub-divisions thereof while investigating grievances.
