Action Steps State scope of practice laws can allow for broad, unre- stricted CPAs between pharmacists and other providers. To build and strengthen collaborative practices, phar- macists can use the following strategies, which were proposed by the APhA Foundation’s expert group: Use simple, understandable terms to describe the patient care services that pharmacists can provide. Educate other health care professionals about the value of including pharmacists on health care teams. Encourage other health professional organizations to work together when proposing changes to scope of practice laws. Set up or participate in interprofessional committees to discuss how scope of practice laws can expand the role of pharmacists and other health professionals in team-based care. Talk with local health care providers about entering into CPAs. Talk with payers about using viable business models to support pharmacists’ patient care services. Share appropriate health information with providers through the use of EHRs. Show relevant stakeholders the value of aligning incentives and reimbursement for all health care team members involved in patient care to improve health and decrease costs. Maintain strong, trusting, and mutually beneficial relationships with patients, doctors, and other providers and encourage those individuals to promote pharmacists’ patient care services. Expanding and promoting pharmacists’ patient care services at the local level can help key stakeholders understand the value of CPAs. Patients, doctors, and other health care pro- viders can share their positive experiences with pharmacists to affirm and promote the value that pharmacists bring to the health care system. They can also champion policies that support collaborative practices.
First Step If a dispute cannot be resolved by this method, the Accredited Union Representative may file a formal grievance on the prescribed form with EPSCA/the Employer within fifteen (15) working days of the alleged grievous act. Within ten (10) working days of the filing of the grievance, EPSCA/the Employer shall investigate the grievance and convene a First Step meeting which he or the Accredited Union Representative considers necessary to resolve it. The Management Committee shall be comprised of EPSCA or their designate plus at least one representative of the Employer named in the grievance. The Union Committee shall include at least two persons, one of whom shall be the Accredited Union Representative for the grievor. EPSCA/the Employer shall give his reply on the prescribed form to the Accredited Union Representative within five (5) working days from the date of the First Step meeting. Copies of completed grievance forms signed by the appropriate parties shall be filed by EPSCA/the Employer with the General Manager of EPSCA. The Accredited Union Representative for the grievor will file a copy with the Union. The EPSCA/the Employer will send a copy of any signed first step grievance settlement between the Accredited Union Representative and EPSCA/the Employer to the Union and EPSCA office.
Formal Steps 1. Step One A grievant or the Union shall initiate their grievance in writing and present it formally to the College/University President or his or her designee. Such statement of grievance should include specific reference to the following:
Longevity Steps STEP 19 = 11 years of, full-time service in the Murrieta Valley Unified School District with the exception of broken service caused by an allowable necessity in accordance with the definition of “Allowable Necessity” contained in Appendix F “Definition of Terms.” STEP 22 = 14 years of, full-time service in the Murrieta Valley Unified School District with the exception of broken service caused by an allowable necessity in accordance with the definition of “Allowable Necessity” contained in Appendix F “Definition of Terms.” STEP 25 = 17 years of, full-time service in the Murrieta Valley Unified School District with the exception of broken service caused by an allowable necessity in accordance with the definition of “Allowable Necessity” contained in Appendix F “Definition of Terms.” STEP 28 = 20 years of, full-time service in the Murrieta Valley Unified School District with the exception of broken service caused by an allowable necessity in accordance with the definition of “Allowable Necessity” contained in Appendix F “Definition of Terms.”
Omitting Steps a. Nothing in this Collective Agreement shall prevent the parties from mutually agreeing to refer a grievance to a higher step in the grievance procedure.
Third Step In the event a grievance has not been satisfactorily resolved at the second step, the aggrieved teacher shall file, within five (5) school days of the principal’s written decision at the second step, a copy of the grievance with the Superintendent. Within ten (10) school days after such written grievance is filed, the aggrieved and the Superintendent or his/her designee shall meet to resolve the grievance. The Superintendent or his/her designee shall file an answer within ten (10) school days of the third step grievance meeting and communicate it in writing to the teacher and the principal.
Steps STEP 1: The designated Union Representative(s), with or without the employee, shall attempt to resolve the matter with the employee's immediate supervisor within twenty-one (21) calendar days after the employee, through the use of reasonable diligence, should have had knowledge of the first occurrence of the event giving rise to the grievance. The supervisor shall then attempt to resolve the matter and shall respond to the Union Representative within seven (7) calendar days.
Further steps Each party agrees, at its own expense, to do anything the other party asks (such as obtaining consents, signing and producing documents and getting documents completed and signed):
Procedural Steps 33. a. Step 1: An employee having a grievance other than one involving disciplinary suspension or discharge, may first discuss it with the employee's immediate supervisor and try to work out a satisfactory solution in an informal manner. Resolution of any grievance at this step without the formal intervention of the Union or the Director of the Employee Relations Division (ERD) shall not impair the position of either the Union or the Director of ERD in any subsequent dispute between the City and the Union which advances beyond this step.
