Recognizing that grievances should be raised and settled promptly, a grievance must be raised within twenty-one (21) calendar days of the occurrence of the event giving rise to the grievance or within twenty-one (21) calendar days of the date the employee knew or reasonably should have known of the event giving rise to the grievance. A grievance shall be processed as follows:
Grievance Timing. No grievance shall be raised based on facts or events that have occurred more than twenty (20) business days before the grievant initiates Step One of the process. A grievant’s failure to raise a grievance or to elevate the grievance pursuant to the deadlines established in Section 7.4 shall constitute waiver of the grievance. A grievant’s failure to attend a scheduled grievance meeting may result in waiver of the grievance and termination of the grievance process, at the College’s discretion. Should the College fail to meet any deadline established in Section 7.4 or attend a scheduled grievance meeting at any step pursuant to that Section, the grievant may immediately elevate the grievance to the subsequent step.
Grievance Timing. No grievance shall be raised based on facts or events that have occurred more than ten (10) working days before the grievant initiates Step One of the process. A grievant’s failure to raise a grievance or to progress the grievance pursuant to the deadlines established in Article 7.2 shall constitute waiver of the grievance.
Grievance Timing. Grievances must be submitted within thirty (30) working days from the date the incident leading to the grievance was known or could reasonably have been known. An employee returning from leave shall be allowed thirty (30) working days after returning to submit a grievance.
