As such, the Union is prohibited from filing a grievance for documented coaching and counseling. The Employer shall automatically deny grievances filed against documented coaching and counseling. Progressive discipline includes the following steps: Corrective Action Steps Step 1 Documented Written Warning Step 2 Documented Written Warning #2 Step 3 Final Written Warning Step 4 Termination of Employment

Principles of Progressive Discipline. Except in cases of gross misconduct, or serious insubordination, the principles of progressive discipline will be applied when performance is unsatisfactory. This will include a verbal warning, written warnings, suspension with pay and suspension without pay prior to discharge. At each stage prior to discharge, the Personnel Committee will explain the performance deficiency in detail, outline the standards of performance that are expected, and warn the employee that failure to improve performance will result in further disciplinary action. No employee shall be responsible for carrying out disciplinary actions.
