DISPUTE SETTLEMENT PROCEDURE A major objective of this Agreement is to eliminate lost time and/or production arising out of disputes or grievances. Disputes over any work related or industrial matter should be dealt with as close to its source as possible. Disputes over matters arising from this agreement shall be dealt with according to the following procedure. An employee or the union delegate or site xxxxxxx or Enterprise should initially submit any work related grievance and/or industrial matter to the site foreperson, supervisor or other appropriate site representative of the company or appropriate site union representative as relevant. If the matter remains unresolved the union delegate or site xxxxxxx may then submit the matter to the appropriate senior management person. Where relevant the Enterprise may submit the matter to a union official. If still not resolved the delegate or site xxxxxxx shall refer the matter to an appropriate official of the union, who shall discuss the matter with the nominated representative of the Enterprise. If still not resolved there may be discussions between the state secretary and senior management representative. Whilst the above procedures are being followed work should continue as normal. This procedure is to be followed in good faith and without unreasonable delay by any party. Should the matter remain unresolved and where the issue is within the jurisdiction of the Victorian Building Industry Disputes Board (“the Board”), either of the parties shall refer the dispute at first instance to the Board (which shall deal with the dispute in accordance with VBIA procedures and, where required, determine issues of jurisdiction). The Board’s decision will be accepted by all parties subject to the right of either party to refer the dispute to the Australian Industrial Relations Commission for conciliation and if required arbitration. The Commission’s decision will be accepted by all parties subject to legal rights of appeal. This dispute settlement procedure does not apply to health and safety issues or issues of industry, state or national significance.
Dispute Settlement 1. A Party may not initiate proceedings under the general dispute settlement provisions of this Agreement regarding a refusal to grant temporary entry under this Chapter unless: (a) the matter involves a pattern of practice; and (b) the business person has exhausted the available administrative remedies regarding the particular matter.
2. The remedies referred to in subparagraph 1(b) shall be deemed to be exhausted if a final determination in the matter has not been issued by the competent authority within one year of the institution of an administrative proceeding, and the failure to issue a determination is not attributable to delay caused by the business person.
Dispute Settlement Procedures Principles
a) This procedure is designed to promote the resolution of issues that arise at the lowest possible level and to provide a step-by-step process which will be accessed if the parties are genuinely unable to resolve the issue.
b) At each step in the procedure, reasonable time is to be allowed for the parties to resolve the matter. The parties agree not to proceed to each next step in the procedure until the previous step has been completed. Following these procedures will ensure the dispute is resolved in the most efficient manner.
c) In the event of a dispute in relation to a matter arising under this agreement, in the first instance the parties will attempt to resolve the matter at the workplace by discussions between the employee or employees concerned and the relevant supervisor and, if such discussions do not resolve the dispute, by discussions between the employee or employees concerned and more senior levels of management as appropriate. If the matter is not resolved at this level, the grievance shall be referred to the designated management representative.
d) Should the matter remain unresolved at this level, the Employee, at his/her discretion, may nominate a representative to meet with the Supervisor, the designated manager,and the Consultative Committee to resolve the issue.
e) A party to the dispute may appoint another person, organisation or association to accompany or represent them in relation to the dispute.
f) If a dispute in relation to a matter arising under the agreement is unable to be resolved at the workplace, and all agreed steps for resolving it have been taken, the dispute may be referred to the Australian Industrial Relations Commission (the Commission) for resolution by mediation and/or conciliation. Any solution proposed by the Commission or another third party must be consistent with the Construction Code and Guidelines and relevant legislation.
g) It is a term of this agreement that while the dispute resolution procedure is being conducted work shall continue normally. The circumstances that applied prior to the dispute arising shall apply until final resolution of the matter.
h) Any dispute referred to the Commission under this clause should be dealt with by a member agreed by the parties at the time or, in default of agreement, a member nominated by either the head of the relevant panel or the President.
i) This dispute resolution procedure does not apply to Occupational Health and Safety matters. It is expected that the Occupational Health and Safety Representatives will follow appropriate procedures in the resolution of any Health and Safety matters.
Investor-state Dispute Settlement Any dispute between an investor of one Party and the other Party in connection with an investment in the territory of the other Party shall, as far as possible, be settled amicably through negotiations between the parties to the dispute.
Claims Excluded from Arbitration The following matters will not be subject to arbitration but will instead be adjudicated in the courts of Cleveland County, Oklahoma or such other court in which jurisdiction and venue are proper: (a) an action for possession or for injunctive remedies provided under applicable landlord-tenant laws or to enforce intellectual property rights; (b) a suit by Owner or its assignee for collection of amounts owed by Resident under this Agreement; and (c) any claim or dispute for which applicable law (as determined by a binding court decision) or the applicable arbitration rules do not permit arbitration and require adjudication in a specific civil court. Matters within the jurisdiction of an applicable small claims court may also be brought in that court in lieu of arbitration.
Dispute Procedure (1) Unless otherwise provided in the Council's Constitution or in this Collective Agreement, any dispute within the registered scope of the Council shall be resolved as set out below:
(a) The General Secretary of the Council shall, after consultation with the Secretary of any relevant Regional Chamber, decide whether any dispute referred to the Council must be dealt with by the Council or the Regional Chamber.
(b) The Council shall, from time to time, adopt, by resolution, guidelines for the General Secretary of the Council to follow in the allocation of such disputes.
(c) When any dispute is allocated to a Regional Chamber in terms of this clause, then such Regional Chamber shall have the same rights, powers and obligations as the Council.

(a) The matter shall be first submitted by the Employee/s or his/her job delegate/ employee representative or other representative, to the site foreperson/supervisor or the other appropriate site representative of the Employer and if not settled, to a more senior representative of the Employer.
