Steps of the Grievance Process. Grievances shall be processed as follows: Step 1 The technical employee must present the Grievance Form in person and in writing to their Director or authorized management designee not later than ten (10) days after the date of the event giving rise to the grievance. If the technical employee could not have known of such event at the time it occurs, then such grievance must be presented within ten (10) days from the date it reasonably should have been known. The grievance shall specifically refer to the provision(s) of the Agreement alleged to have been violated and shall set forth the known facts in support of the alleged violation, the relief sought, and shall be on a grievance form mutually agreed upon by the parties. The Director and a Human Resources representative or other appropriate member of management or their designees shall meet with the aggrieved technical employee and a Staff Council Representative within seven (7) days of receipt of said grievance. Such meeting may be waived by mutual consent. The Director or designee shall answer the grievance in writing within seven (7) days after such meeting or, where no meeting is held, within seven (7) days after receipt of such grievance. If the Director or designee is able to resolve the grievance, a signed confirmation shall be executed thereby closing the matter. Failure of the Director or designee to timely respond to the grievance shall automatically advance the grievance to Step 2.
Steps of the Grievance Process. The City and the Union have the right to mutually agree to expand any of the timeframes set forth in any of the steps of this Grievance process.
Steps of the Grievance Process. (1) Step 1. Grievances are to be presented in writing to the employee's immediate Supervisor within twenty-one (21) days after the event which gave rise to the grievance, or within twenty-one (21) days after the date the employee reasonably should have known of the event. The written grievance must clearly apprise the Supervisor of the fact that a grievance is being presented. Upon receipt of a grievance, the Supervisor will forward a copy to the Department Head and Head Labor Relations. Normally, within ten (10) days after receipt of the grievance, the Department Head or his/her designee will meet with the grievant and their representative, if any, and render a written decision within twenty-one (21) days of management’s receipt of the grievance. The Local Union will be entitled to have the same number of representatives present as management at the Step 1 grievance meeting. The grievant shall not count for purposes of calculating number of representatives present.
Steps of the Grievance Process. 7.4.1 Informal- Within twenty (20) days of the time when the grievant could reasonably be expected to know of the act or omission which gave rise to the grievance, the aggrieved shall meet with the Principal/Designee either directly or through the Federation’s designated representative as appropriate, with the objective of resolving the matter.
Steps of the Grievance Process. Whenever a grievance arises, an employee may present said grievance to his command officer and have the grievance adjusted, without intervention of the employee’s representative, if the adjustment is not inconsistent with the terms of this agreement, provided that the employee’s representative has been given the opportunity to be present at such adjustment. The employee shall suffer no loss of pay for the time spent with his command officer to discuss the grievance. If the issue is unresolved, the employee, on his own time, may contact his representative, who, on his own time, shall reduce the grievance processing provided for in this article. Failure to comply with all of the requirements as set forth in the following grievance procedure or with the rules for grievance processing shall be a basis for the denial of a grievance. Step 1. If unresolved verbally, an employee or their Union representative shall present a written grievance to the grievant’s immediate supervisor. The immediate supervisor, no more than fifteen (15) days later, shall write their answer on the form and return same to the employee(s) and their representative. Step 2. If the immediate supervisor’s answer in Step 1 is not satisfactory to the grievant, the employee’s representative may, within fifteen (15) days thereafter, present it to the Police Chief or their designated representative who shall answer it, in writing, not more than fifteen (15) days later.
Steps of the Grievance Process. 1) Step 1. An Employee, who may be accompanied by the appropriate Union representative, will present the grievance informally to the immediate supervisor. The Union representative is entitled to participate in the meeting and may present the grievance for the Employee. The supervisor or management official will make whatever investigation necessary and render an oral decision within ten (10) working days after receipt of the grievance. The Union and the Employer anticipates that most Employee grievances will be settled at this Step; however, if the grievant is not satisfied with the decision, the five (5) working day time limit to submit the initial grievance in writing begins and the grievance may proceed to Step 2.
