Deadlock Procedure Sample Clauses

Deadlock Procedure. In situations where the National Joint Grievance Review Committee deadlocks and provisions of the National Master, FOA or other company policies, are central to the dispute (Articles 1 through 49), such dispute shall be submitted to a mutually agreeable neutral arbitrator for final and binding resolution. If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator, they shall request a panel from the FMCS (National Academy members only) from the Washington D.C. area. The dispute resolution machinery contained in local riders, addenda or supplements do not have authority to interpret the provisions of the National Master (Articles 1 through 49) without the consent of the Employer and the National Union Committee.
