Disciplinary Procedures for disciplinary penalties Sample Clauses

Disciplinary Procedures for disciplinary penalties other than discharge from employment. a. In the event the campus has imposed a disciplinary penalty as defined in Section 17.2 other than discharge from employment, the employee shall have, upon the filing of a timely request, the right to meet with the President’s designee so that the employee may respond to the charges that are the basis for the discipline. b. Within five (5) calendar days of the effective date of implementation of such penalty or the date upon which the employee should reasonably have been aware such penalty was to be implemented, whichever is later, the employee may file a written request for a meeting with the President’s designee. Such written request shall be filed by the employee by personal service or certified mail RRR. Such request shall be considered filed on the date of delivery for personal service or upon the date of postmark for date of mailing affixed by the U.S. Postal Service on the return receipt for certified mail. In the event a request is not filed within the above specified time limits, all rights and entitlements contained in this Article and otherwise applicable shall be deemed waived. c. The employee may elect to be accompanied to such meeting by a representative of the GSEU. Such election must, however, be clearly stated within the written request for a meeting with the President’s designee. In the event an employee does not clearly state in such written request that he/she will be accompanied by a GSEU representative, it shall be deemed a waiver of such right for purposes of the meeting with the President’s designee. d. Within five (5) calendar days of the employee’s filing of a request for a meeting with the President’s designee, the President’s designee shall initiate the scheduling of a meeting with the employee for purposes of discussing the basis for the implementation of the disciplinary penalty. The President’s designee shall send written confirmation to the employee identifying the time, date and place where such meeting will be held. Accompanying such written confirmation shall be a brief written description of the basis for the implementation of the disciplinary penalty. In the event the employee has indicated in his/her written request that he/she will be accompanied to such meeting by a representative from the GSEU, the appropriate campus GSEU representative as identified under Article 26 of the Agreement will be the person to whom all scheduling matters and materials will be directed.
