GREIVANCE PROCEDURE. SECTION 1 For the purpose of this Agreement, a grievance is defined as any dispute or disagreement between the employee or employees and the Company of the Union and the Company as to interpretation of this Agreement. A grievance to be timely must be presented within five (5) scheduled working days from the time the employee involved first knew, or could have known of the facts giving rise to the grievance.
STEP 1: The aggrieved employee or employees shall record their grievance on a grievance blank and present the same to the Shop ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. The Shop ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ will then attempt to settle the grievance with the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or immediate supervisor of the employee as soon as possible. The Shop ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall be advised by the employee's immediate supervisor within three (3) working days after submission of the written grievance as to the terms, if any, upon which the Company is willing to adjust the grievance.
STEP 2: If no satisfactory adjustment is agreed upon, the matter shall be referred by the Shop ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ to the Plant Superintendent, or some other executive officer of the Company, with authority to act, who shall review the alleged grievance and offer a decision within five (5) working days after receipt of the grievance.
STEP 3: If the grievance is not resolved in Step 2, the grievance shall be referred to Step 3 within five (5) working days of the Company's answer in Step 2. The General Manager and/or his designee shall meet with the appropriate Local Union Representative to attempt to resolve the dispute. Such meeting will be held within fifteen (15) working days of the Company's answer in Step 2. The Company will provide a written response to the Union within five (5) scheduled working days of the meeting.
STEP 4: If the grievance is not resolved in Step 3, the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service may be requested to supply a panel of seven (7) arbitrators. The parties will thereafter meet or otherwise confer to select the arbitrator.

GREIVANCE PROCEDURE. Section 1. Definition From time to time there may be differences and misunderstandings about the interpretation and application of the terms of this Agreement. Both parties agree that these differences and/or misunderstandings should be resolved promptly and, whenever possible, through informal means of communication between employees and the Public Authority. The Union will encourage bargaining unit members to discuss and resolve their concerns directly with appropriate Public Authority staff as the first step in addressing any work-related problem in order to prevent the need for a formal grievance. However, it is also acknowledged that occasions may arise in which informal means are inadequate to resolve work- related disputes concerning the interpretation or application of this agreement. A grievance is hereby defined as a claim by an employee, a group of employees or the Union covered by this agreement involving an alleged violation of a provision of this Agreement by the Public Authority. Participation in the grievance procedure in any capacity shall be solely on the Provider’s own time, and shall not be treated as within any IHSS Recipient’s allocated service hours, or as paid time. The grievance procedure shall not apply to matters over which the Public Authority has no jurisdiction, consumer rights or regarding the County of Orange.
GREIVANCE PROCEDURE. A. A grievance is defined as an alleged dispute or violation of a specific Article or Section of this Agreement. There shall be an ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ effort on the part of the grievant, the Union, and the Board/Employer to settle the grievance through the following steps. Any employee(s) who believe he/she has been unjustly dealt with may grieve up to and including Step 4 of the grievance procedure.
B. The time limits specified herein for movement of grievances through the process shall be strictly adhered to and may be relaxed or extended only by mutual consent of the parties in writing. In the event that the seniority employee or the Union, in behalf of the seniority employee, fails to appeal a grievance or grievance answer within the stated time limits, the involved grievance shall be deemed abandoned and settled on the basis of the Board/Employer’s last answer. In the event the Board of Education representative does not reply within the time limit specified, the grievance may proceed to the next step unless the grievant or the Union, on behalf of the seniority employee, indicates otherwise.
C. Each grievance must be initiated within fifteen (15) working days of the occurrence of the grievance or, if the seniority employee did not have knowledge of the grievance at the time of its happening, then within fifteen (15) working days after the aggrieved becomes aware of the cause of the grievance.
D. Any written agreement reached between the Employer and the Union is binding on all employees affected and cannot be changed by any individual.
E. Where more than one (1) written grievance involving the same issue has been filed and processed through the grievance procedure to STEP THREE, the parties may, by mutual written agreement at STEP THREE, select one of the grievances as representative of the group. The remaining grievance shall then be held in abeyance at STEP THREE while the selected representative grievance is processed further in the grievance procedure. The ultimate disposition of the selected grievance shall then be applicable to the remaining grievances held at STEP THREE.
F. In the event it becomes necessary for the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ to be involved in handling a grievance, the appropriate Union ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ will be allowed reasonable time during working hours, without loss of pay, for the proper handling of grievances. The appropriate supervisor or principal may grant permission to the appropriate ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, with the exception of drivers during their regular scheduled drivin...
