Formal Level II Clause Samples
The 'Formal Level II' clause establishes a specific escalation stage within a dispute resolution or grievance process. At this level, issues that were not resolved informally or at a lower level are formally documented and reviewed by higher management or a designated committee. This process typically involves written submissions, scheduled meetings, and a structured timeline for response. The core function of this clause is to ensure that unresolved matters receive a more formal and thorough review, providing a clear pathway for addressing disputes and promoting fair resolution.
Formal Level II. 1. If the grievance is not settled at Level One, it may be appealed to the Superintendent by filing a written notice within five (5) working days after receipt of the principal’s written answer.
