Discipline Appeals. The Employer agrees that Employees shall be disciplined or discharged only for just cause. Disciplinary actions, other than an oral reprimand and disciplinary suspensions of five (5) days or less for 24-hour Employees or five (5) days or less for 40-hour per week Employees shall be subject to the grievance procedure set forth above and shall not be subject to the jurisdiction of the Civil Service Commission. Disciplinary suspensions in excess of five (5) days as referenced above or discharge, may be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Civil Service Commission or to the grievance provisions of this Contract at the option of the disciplined Employee as to which appeal procedure (Grievance Arbitration or Civil Service Commission) the Employee may select. Further it is agreed that the grievance provisions of Article IV and the Civil Service appeals procedure are mutually exclusive and that no relief shall be available under Article IV with respect to any matter which, at the Employee's option, is appealed to the Civil Service Commission; and no relief shall be available under the Civil Service appeals process to any matter which, at the Employee's option, is appealed to the grievance arbitration procedures of Article IV of this Agreement. Disciplinary suspensions of thirty (30) days or more and discharges shall be subject to the expedited procedure mutually agreed to by the parties.
Discipline Appeals. Article XII of the County's Personnel Rules and Regulations, entitled "Disciplinary Actions and Appeals Procedures," contains a detailed description of the procedures applicable to employee discipline including employee rights to due process through the "Xxxxxx" procedure for proposed discipline and the appeals procedure for imposed discipline. Selection of Arbitrator (as a Hearing Officer for disciplinary appeals under Article XII) within 30 days of the date the grievant files a notice of appeal, the County and the employee, or if the employee is represented, the employee's representative, shall attempt to mutually agree on an experienced impartial Arbitrator to preside over the hearing. The parties may extend this date by mutual consent. If the parties are unable to identify a mutually acceptable Arbitrator, they will request a list of seven (7) experienced Arbitrators from the State Mediation and Conciliation Service (SMCS) or similar source agreed upon by the parties and select an Arbitrator via an alternate strike method. The party to strike the first name will be determined either by mutual agreement or by a random method such as coin toss. If the remaining individual on the list is unavailable to hear the matter, the parties may mutually agree to use the second remaining name on the list or will otherwise request a new list from SMCS. This provision shall also apply to the grievance process to the extent consistent therewith. Re-Opener: In the event that ICEA becomes an "agency shop" the Union agrees to reopen the MOU upon the County's request to provide for a new process regarding the manner in which disciplinary appeals are pursued.
