POLICY AND COMMUNICATION a. Most grievances arise from misunderstandings which can be settled promptly and satisfactorily on an informal basis at the immediate supervisory level. The Employer and Union agree that every effort will be made by management officials, the Union and grievant(s) to settle grievances at the lowest possible level. It is understood by the Employer and the Union that the initiation of a grievance in good faith by an Employee should not cast any reflection on his/her standing with his/her supervisor and his/her loyalty to the organization, nor should the grievance be construed as a reflection on the Employee’s supervisor.
