Grievance of Discipline or Discharge. Oral or written corrective action may not be challenged through the grievance procedure. Permanent employees may challenge all final discipline or discharge decisions, including terminations due to job abandonment, through the grievance procedure; provided that written reprimands may not be grieved beyond Step 2 of the grievance procedure. However, if an employee receives three (3) or more written reprimands from the same supervisor within a twelve (12) month period; then the third and all subsequent reprimands from the same supervisor will be subject to the full grievance procedure, including arbitration, during the twelve (12) month period following the effective date of the third written reprimand.
