DISCHARGE AND DISCIPLINARY PROCEDURE 8.01 Management shall not take disciplinary action without first warning the employee, unless the circumstances justify immediate suspension or discharge. In the event of a claim that an employee has been discharged or suspended unjustly or unreasonably, the grievance shall be filed at Step Three (3) of the grievance procedure within five (5) working days.
Discharge Procedure An employee who has completed his probationary period may be dismissed, but only for just cause, and only upon the authority of the Employer. When an employee is to be discharged or suspended, he shall be given the reason in the presence of his shop xxxxxxx, unit representative or his designate. Such employee and the Union shall be advised within seven (7) working days in writing by the Employer of the reason for such discharge or suspension.
DISCHARGE, SUSPENSION AND DISCIPLINE 14.01 (a) In the event an Employee is suspended as a disciplinary measure and the Employee considers that an injustice has been done, the matter may be taken up at Step 2 of the Grievance Procedure.
Unjust Suspension or Discharge Should it be found upon investigation that an employee has been unjustly suspended, discharged or disciplined, such employee shall be immediately reinstated in his/her former position, without loss of seniority, and shall be compensated for all time lost in an amount equal to his/her normal earnings plus interest, or by any other arrangement as to compensation which is just and equitable in the opinion of the parties or in the opinion of the arbitrator if the matter is referred to such arbitrator.
Suspension or Discharge In the event of a grievance arising from an employee's suspension or dismissal, the Employer agrees to notify the employee, in writing, setting out the grounds for the Employer's action. A copy of the notice will be sent to the Union's designate within five (5) calendar days. Grievances arising from suspension shall be filed at Step 2 and from dismissals at arbitration within twenty-one (21) days of the suspension or dismissal.
Appeals Procedure If Employee appeals to the Administrator, Employee or his authorized representative may submit in writing whatever issues and comments he believes to be pertinent.
