General and Class Grievances. An individual bargaining unit member may grieve on his/her own behalf and must sign the grievance document. The Union may grieve on behalf of itself in cases where it asserts that rights flowing to it, as distinguished from bargaining unit members, under this Agreement, have been violated by the Employer. The Union may also bring a grievance on behalf of one or more bargaining unit members whose signatures appear on the grievance document in any case wherein more than one bargaining unit member claims harm as the result of a single Employer violation. Within twenty (20) days of the grievance being filed, additional signatures of grievants may be added to such a grievance document. General and class grievances are not otherwise allowed except by the voluntary consent of the Employer. When the Union grieves on behalf of multiple persons, each individual claim must comply with the strictures of this Article.
