Filing a Formal Grievance. 12.5.1 A formal grievance is initiated by the filing of a Notice of Grievance on the pre- scribed notice form. (The grievance form is included in the Appendix of Forms.) 12.5.2 The Notice must be filed by the grievant or Union representative with the grievant’s supervising manager and with the Director of Human Resources. Fail- ure to file the grievance with the Director of Human Resources within the time limit will invalidate the filing of the grievance. If the grievance is not filed cor- rectly with the supervising manager, the Director of Human Resources will direct the grievance to the appropriate manager for response. If the grievant is not repre- sented by the Union, a copy of the grievance must also be filed with the Union Field Representative. The grievance must be filed within 20 working days after the grievant discovered or reason- ably could have discovered the circumstances or action giving rise to the grievance. Regard- less of the date of discovery, however, a notice shall not be timely if it is filed after the appli- cable statute of limitations period set forth in relevant laws. Informal attempts at resolution must take place within the 20 working day period before filing of the grievance; provided, however, that if attempts at informal resolution require further discussion the timeline for fil- ing a formal grievance may be extended by mutual written agreement of the parties.
