The written grievance shall be filed with the Employee Relations Division within five (5) working days of oral notification of the immediate supervisor’s decision.

The determination and notification to the grievant and ESDSBC will be made within five (5) working days of receipt of the grievance. ESDSBC may appeal this determination directly to an arbitrator in accordance with the provision of this procedure within five (5) working days following notification by the Employee Relations Division.

However, it is expressly agreed that such objections to the procedural and/or substantive grievability of a grievance are preserved in any arbitration hearing and that no waiver will result from the subsequent processing and discussion of the grievance on the merits.
