Shop Stewards 15. The Union may select one ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and/or alternate ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ in each department or bureau in which employees covered by this CBA are working. A ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall only deal with grievances within or related to the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ department or bureau. 16. The Union shall furnish the City with an accurate list of shop stewards. The Union may submit amendments to this list at any time because of the permanent absence of a designated shop ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. If a shop ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ is not officially designated in writing, by the Union, none will be recognized. 17. The Union and the City recognize that it is the responsibility of the shop ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ to assist in the resolution of grievances or disputes at the lowest possible level. 18. While handling grievances, discipline, or meeting with the City representatives concerning matters affecting the working conditions and status of employees covered by this CBA, not more than two shop stewards shall be allowed time off during normal working hours to perform such duties without loss of pay; provided, however, that time off for investigation shall be reasonably related to the difficulty of the grievance. No ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall leave the duty or work station or assignment without specific approval of the employee's department head or other authorized manager. Such release time for the shop ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall not be unreasonably denied. 19. If, in the judgment of the supervisor, permission cannot be granted immediately to the shop ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ to investigate or present a grievance during on duty time, such permission shall be granted by the supervisor no later than the next working day from the date the shop ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ was denied permission, unless the parties agree to an alternative time. 20. In handling grievances or disciplinary matters, the shop ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall have the right to: 21. Consult with the affected employee regarding the presentation of a grievance after the employee has requested the assistance or presence of the shop ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. 22. Present to a supervisor a grievance, which has been requested by an employee or group of employees, for resolution or adjustment. 23. Investigate any such grievance so that such grievance can be properly discussed with the supervisor or the designated representative. 24. Attend meetings with supervisors or other city representatives when such meetings are necessary to adjust grievances or represent employees in disciplinary matters. In scheduling meetings, due consideration shall be given to the operating needs and work schedules of the department, division, or section in which the employees are employed. Release time for the shop ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall not be unreasonably denied. 25. In emergency situations, where immediate disciplinary action may be taken because of violation of law or a City or departmental rule (theft, etc.), the shop ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall, if possible, be granted immediate permission to leave his/her post of duty to assist the employee. 26. Shop stewards shall not interfere with the work of any employee. 27. Pursuant to the ▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act and Employee Relations Ordinance, a reasonable number of stewards or other designated employees may attend during working hours with no loss of pay, meetings scheduled with representatives of the Appointing Officer for the purpose of meeting and conferring on terms and conditions of employment, and may participate in the discussions, deliberations and decisions at such meeting. 28. Stewards shall receive timely notice of departmental orientation sessions, and shall be permitted to make appearances at departmental orientation sessions, in order to distribute Union materials and to discuss employee rights and obligations under this CBA. The Union and a department or bureau may agree to other arrangements for contact between stewards and new employees.
