Rights of Employees to Representation Any aggrieved person may be represented at all stages of the grievance procedure by himself/herself and, at his/her option, by a representative selected or approved by the Association. It is further recognized that any adjustment reached without a representative of the Association present shall be without prejudice to the Association.
Employee Right to Representation 7.1 Where a supervisor or other Employer representative intends to meet with an employee:
Rights to Representation Any party of interest may be represented at all meetings and hearings at any level of the grievance procedure by another teacher or another person. Provided, however, that no teacher may be represented by an officer, agent, or other representative of any educational organization other than the Association and the Michigan Education Association and the National Education Association. When a teacher is not represented by the Association, the Association shall have the right to be present and to state its views at all stages of the grievance processing.
Representation of Employees An employee shall be entitled to Union representation at an investigative interview or meeting if requested by the employee when that employee reasonably believes that the interview or meeting may result in disciplinary action against him/her. The Union representative's role at an investigative interview or meeting is to consult with the employee. The Employer is free to insist upon hearing the employee's own account of the matter(s) under investigation. The Parties agree that in all cases the principles of "Xxxxxxxxxx" and "Xxxxxxx" and other applicable case law shall be observed. "Disciplinary action" means action resulting in a written warning, the withholding of an annual increment, a suspension, a demotion or a dismissal, as stated in the Administrative Rules of the Division of Personnel.
Right to Representation Upon request, an employee will have the right to representation at all levels on any matter adversely affecting the employee’s conditions of employment. The exercise of this right shall not unreasonably delay or postpone a meeting. Representation will not apply to discussions with an employee in the normal course of duty, such as giving instructions, assigning work, informal discussions, delivery of paperwork, staff or work unit meetings or other routine communications with an employee.
Rights of Teachers to Representation No reprisals of any kind shall be taken by the Superintendent or by any member or representatives of the administration or the Board against any aggrieved person, any party in interest, any member of the Association or any other participant in the grievance procedure by reason of such participation.
Right of Fair Representation The Union shall have the right to have the assistance of representatives of the Canadian Union of Public Employees when dealing or negotiating with the Employer.
Right of Representation An employee covered by this Agreement shall, under this Article, have the right to have an Association representative present at any time, subject to his requesting such representation.
Employee Representation Clauses 49, 50 and 51 of this Agreement outline the rights for employee representatives and Union Delegates when assisting Employees. For clarity, each Employee has the right to determine whether they wish to be represented by a Union Delegate, Employee Representative, another representative of their choosing, or not at all. Such representatives (or individual Employees) are entitled to the protections of Division 4 of Part 3-1 of the Fair Work Act in relation to their involvement in lawful industrial activities.
Exclusive Representation The Employer shall not enter into any agreements with the employees covered by this Agreement either individually or collectively or with any other employee organization which in any way conflicts with the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Further, the Employer shall meet and negotiate, pursue the resolution of grievances and conduct arbitration proceedings only with the properly designated representative(s) of the Union.
