Initial Filing and Grievance Committee Review Clause Samples

The Initial Filing and Grievance Committee Review clause establishes the process for submitting and evaluating grievances within an organization or agreement. It typically requires that any party wishing to raise a complaint must first file a formal grievance, which is then reviewed by a designated committee to determine its validity and whether further action is warranted. This clause ensures that disputes are addressed in an organized and systematic manner, providing a clear first step in the resolution process and helping to filter out unfounded or premature claims.
Initial Filing and Grievance Committee Review. 1. In order to be considered, a grievance raising contractual issues must be submitted to the union grievance committee within thirty (30) calendar days of the grievant’s actual or constructive knowledge of the event. A grievance raising non-contractual issues must be submitted with the union grievance committee within one hundred eighty (180) calendar days of the grievant’s actual or constructive knowledge of the event. 2. The Union or any employee covered by this Agreement having a matter which is felt to be a grievance shall submit the grievance in writing to the Union Grievance Committee. The grievance shall be submitted on a form to be provided by the City and must include (a) a brief statement of the grievance and the facts on which it is based; (b) the section of the Collective Bargaining Agreement which has been violated; (c) the remedy or adjustment, if any, sought; (d) the employee’s signature; and (e) where “maintenance of standards” is a basis for the grievance, the specific standard(s) alluded to must be identified. As used herein, “maintenance of standards” includes all statutory or other non-contract provisions incorporated herein through the Maintenance of Standards Clause found at Article 9. 3. Within three (3) business days after receipt of a grievance, the Union Grievance Committee shall provide a courtesy copy of the grievance to the Fire Chief. The copy may be delivered via hand delivery, facsimile transmission or email. 4. If the Union Grievance Committee decides in its sole discretion that no grievance is found to exist, no further action shall be required; provided, that if any employee grievance concerns matters appealable to court, e.g., statutory violations, the employee retains the option to file suit if her/his/her grievance is rejected. 5. The Union Grievance Committee shall review the grievance and if a grievance is found to exist for reasons stated by the employee or reasons known to the Committee, the Committee shall process the grievance by passing the grievance to the Fire Chief within fifteen (15) business days from receipt thereof.
