Step Four - Arbitration 15.6.1. If a grievance is not resolved at Step Three, the Association may request a hearing before an arbitrator. The request shall be filed in the Human Resource Services Division or designee within fifteen (15) workdays after the written decision of the division representative becomes effective.
Level Four - Arbitration A. If the Association is not satisfied with the disposition of the grievance at the Board level, it may within ten (10) days after the decision of the Board refer the matter for arbitration to the American Arbitration Association by filing a written demand for arbitration and request the appointment of an arbitrator to hear the grievance. If the parties cannot agree upon an arbitrator, he shall be selected in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association.
Demand for Arbitration The demand for arbitration must be in writing and must be made by the aggrieved party within the statute of limitations period provided under applicable State and/or Federal law for the particular claim(s). Failure to make a written demand within the applicable statutory period constitutes a waiver of the right to assert that claim in any forum.
Regular Arbitration The aggrieved party may elect to proceed to regular arbitration within ten (10) working days following the Step Two meeting if no agreement has been reached by the parties or within ten (10) working days following the cancellation of the Step Two meeting. The IATSE and the Producers agree to establish a panel of individuals with recognized experience as professional labor arbitrators as members of a standing panel of neutral arbitrators. The panel shall comprise an odd number of arbitrators. If demand is served for regular arbitration, then the parties shall select a sole arbitrator to hear and determine the grievance by mutual agreement. If the parties cannot agree to the arbitrator to be appointed, then each party shall have the right to alternately strike an arbitrator's name from the panel until such time as one arbitrator is left and the remaining arbitrator shall be selected and appointed as the arbitrator in the proceedings. The parties shall select the arbitrator within five (5) working days after the demand for regular arbitration has been served. The parties may, by mutual agreement, select the arbitrator outside of the panel of neutral arbitrators or utilize the list of arbitrators obtained from the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service. Such hearing shall be held within fourteen (14) days after the arbitrator is selected, at such time and place as the arbitrator shall determine. If the arbitrator so selected is unable or unwilling to undertake the arbitration within the time limit herein provided, another arbitrator shall be selected from such list. The decision of the arbitrator shall be rendered in writing, stating his reasons for the award, within thirty (30) days after the submission of the grievance for decision. The arbitrator's decision shall be final and binding upon the parties thereto and upon any employees concerned. The arbitrator shall have the power to determine the specific grievance or dispute, but shall not have the power to amend, modify or effect a change in any of the provisions of the Agreement, nor to determine jurisdictional disputes. Fees and expenses of the arbitrator and cost of a court reporter and original transcript, when jointly requested, shall be borne equally by the parties to the dispute; otherwise, the party making such request shall pay for it. All other costs shall be borne by the party incurring same.
Step 4 - Arbitration If the grievance is not settled on the basis of the foregoing procedures, the Association may submit the issue in writing to final and binding arbitration within ten (10) calendar days following receipt of the Chief Operating Officer or Chief Administrative Officer’s or designee’s response. Within ten (10) calendar days of the notification that the dispute is submitted for arbitration, the Association shall request the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service to supply a list of eleven (11) arbitrators and the parties shall alternatively strike names from such list until the name of one (1) arbitrator remains who shall be the arbitrator. The party to strike the first name shall be determined by coin toss. In consultation with the arbitrator the Parties shall choose a date for the hearing. The arbitrator’s decision shall be final and binding, subject to limits of authority stated herein. The arbitrator shall have no authority or power to add to, delete from, disregard, or alter any of the provisions of this Agreement, but shall be authorized only to interpret the existing provisions of this Agreement as they may apply to the specific facts of the issue in dispute. The arbitrator shall base his or her decision solely on the contractual obligations expressed in this Agreement. If the arbitrator should find that the Employer was not prohibited by this Agreement from taking, or not taking, the action grieved, he or she shall have no authority to change or restrict the Employer’s action. The arbitrator shall not reverse the Employer’s exercise of discretion in any particular instance and substitute his or her own judgment or determination for that of the Employer. If a nurse feels the Employer’s determination is based upon bad faith, is arbitrary and capricious, is based on irrelevant information or favoritism, the nurse shall have recourse to the grievance procedure. Any dispute as to procedure shall be heard and decided by the arbitrator in a separate proceeding prior to any hearing on the merits. Any dismissal of a grievance by the arbitrator, whether on the merits or on procedural grounds, shall bar any further arbitration. Each party shall bear one-half (½) of the fee of the arbitrator and any other expense jointly incurred by mutual agreement incident to the arbitration hearing. All other expenses, including any costs or attorneys’ fees, shall be borne by the party incurring them, and neither party shall be responsible for the expenses of witnesses called by the other party.
Step 3 - Arbitration If the grievance is not settled on the basis of the foregoing procedures, and if the grievant and the Union have complied with the specific time limitations specified in Steps 1 and 2 herein, the Union may submit the issue in writing to arbitration within fourteen (14) calendar days following the receipt of the written reply from the Director of Employee Relations and Employment or designee. After notification that the dispute is submitted for arbitration, the Employer and the Union shall attempt to agree on an arbitrator. If the Employer and the Union fail to agree on an arbitrator, the Union shall promptly request a list of seven (7) arbitrators from the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service. The parties shall thereupon alternate in striking a name from the panel until one (1) name remains. The person whose name remains shall be the arbitrator.
