Employer Grievances. Where the Hospital believes the Union through its agents, representatives, or members are not in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Hospital may file a Step 3 grievance with the Union President. A Hospital Step 3 grievance will be initiated in writing and signed by the Director of Labor Relations or designee. To be timely, the Hospital’s grievance must be filed within the same timeframes set for filing grievances at Step 1 in this procedure. The Union President will have the same investigatory powers granted to the Hospital at Step 3 and will complete the investigation and render a response in accord with Step 3 timelines. If the grievance is not settled to the Hospital’s satisfaction, the Hospital may advance the grievance in accord with the provisions of Step 4 and Step 5. All communications regarding Hospital grievances and step advancement shall be sent to the Union President at xxxxxxxxxx@xxxxx.xxx. This Section does not preclude the Employer from filing a prohibited practice charge with the Public Employer Employee Relations Board on issues over which the Board has jurisdiction.
