The written appeal must be signed by an authorized representative of the UAW and must include: 1. The name and address of the UAW representative who is responsible for the appeal to arbitration and to whom all correspondence relating to the arbitration is to be sent. 2. A copy of the completed grievance form; and 3. A statement setting forth the unresolved issue(s), the Articles of the Agreement alleged to have been violated, and the remedy requested. If a grievance is not appealed to arbitration, the University’s Step 3 response shall be final.
