GRIEVANCE PROCEDURE 36.01 It is agreed that neither the Employer, its representatives and supervisors, nor the Union, will attempt to bring about the settlement of any contractual issue by means other than the grievance procedure.
36.02 A grievance is a dispute or difference between the Employer and the employee covered by this Bargaining Agreement, concerning the interpretation and/or application of this contract. The following procedures shall apply to the administration of all grievances filed under this Agreement, and shall be presented in accordance with the steps outlined below:
Step 1 An employee who believes he may have a grievance shall notify his immediate supervisor(s) of the possible grievance within seven (7) calendar days of the occurrence of the facts giving rise to the grievance. This notification shall be in writing, and shall state the aggrieved employee's name, position, date of alleged grievance, and the portion of the Agreement in question giving rise to this grievance. The presentation of this grievance shall be in the employee's own hand. The supervisor will schedule an informal meeting within seven (7) calendar days after the receipt of the grievance, with the employee, and his associate if requested by the employee, to discuss the issues in dispute with the objective of resolving the matter informally, with a written reply of the meeting to be given to the employee, the Union xxxxxxx, and the Employer.
Step 2 If no satisfactory settlement is reached at the step 1, the grievance may be appealed to the Division Head, or other Employer designate, and the Local Union Staff Representative within seven (7) calendar days after receiving the reply of the step 1. The appeal shall restate the grievance, and shall include proposed remedy sought by the aggrieved party. A step 2 answer, reduced to writing, will be given to the aggrieved party within seven (7) calendar days of receiving the written appeal.
Step 3 If no satisfactory answer is reached at step 2, the grievance may be appealed to the City Manager and the Union Staff Representative or their designated alternates within seven (7) calendar days after the reply is rendered in step 2. The appeal shall be reduced to writing, shall contain the original grievance and all subsequent answers/decisions, and be in the employee's own hand. A meeting will be held within 14 calendar days after the receipt of the Step 2 reply. A written reply will be issued as a result of this meeting within fourteen
