The Employer will respond within five (5) calendar days of the meeting. In the event an employee files a grievance outside the department in which the employee is employed and the grievance cannot be resolved at Step One, the grievance will be processed at Step Two by the level of management as designated by the University in the department which has been named in the grievance. If a satisfactory settlement is not reached in Step One, and the employee wishes to pursue the matter further, said grievance shall be put into writing on the agreed upon grievance form and referred to the department head or designee or to the next appropriate level of management and the Office of Labor Relations within fifteen (15) calendar days after the decision from Step One.
