Employee and Union Rights. Section 1. Employees have the right to join, assist and participate in the Union, or to refrain from doing so. Neither the City nor the Union nor any employee will interfere with such right.
Section 2. Employees shall have the right to present grievances to the City without the intervention of the Union and to have such grievances adjusted, so long as the adjustment is not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement and so long as a representative of the Union is given permission to be present at the adjustment whenever a request is made for such presence.

Before leaving an assignment pursuant to this Section, the representative must obtain approval from his Department Head, who shall grant the request if in his opinion the operations of the City will not be disrupted, and such permission unreasonably to be denied. Such time off will not be paid, but will not be treated as an absence from work. The purpose for which such time off will be appropriate: investigation and processing of grievances; collective bargaining negotiations scheduled during the normal working hours of the employee; and other reasons acceptable to the supervisor.
Section 4. The Union shall be provided space in each building where the employees are assigned to report for work for the posting of official Union notices of meetings and scheduled events.
