Gifts Prohibited The Consultant represents that it is familiar with Chapter 12.08 of the San Xxxx Municipal Code, which generally prohibits a City officer or designated employee from accepting any gift.

NO DISCRIMINATION OR HARASSMENT 14.01 There shall be no discrimination, interference, restriction, coercion, harassment, intimidation or any disciplinary action exercised or practiced with respect to an employee by reason of race, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, age, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, family status, disability, conviction for which a pardon has been granted, or union affiliation. 14.02 Grievances arising from Article 14.01 shall first be dealt with through an alternate dispute resolution process (ADR) as agreed to by the parties. Once alternate dispute resolution mechanisms are agreed to by the parties, the grievance will be held in abeyance pending the results of the ADR process. Furthermore, employees are precluded from other avenues of redress, save and except applicable legislative procedures, until the ADR process has concluded. The ADR process shall not result in any unreasonable delay. 14.03 Any level in the grievance procedure shall be waived if a person hearing the grievance is the subject of the complaint.
Grievances Any Complaint alleging Discrimination or Harassment shall be pursuant to Board Rule 4001.2 and 4001.3 as they existed on July 10, 2021. Any amendments to Board Rule 4001.2 or 4001.3 which occur after July 10, 2021 will be submitted to the Union for approval prior to implementation for employees covered by this Agreement. Any other grievance, complaint, disagreement or difference of opinion between the District, the Union or the employees covered by the Agreement concerning application of the terms of this Agreement will be processed using the following grievance procedure: (A) Any Employee or the Union may present a Grievance. Any Grievance which is not presented within fifteen (15) days following the event giving rise to such a Grievance shall be forfeited and waived by the aggrieved party. The grievance form shall state the name of every employee authorizing the filing of the grievance, and all grievances shall be signed by at least one aggrieved employee. An aggrieved employee shall have the right to a Union Representative appointed by the Union. (B) The grievant shall first take up the Grievance by presenting it in writing to their immediate supervisor or designee. If the Grievance is not satisfactorily adjusted with five (5) days from the meeting with the supervisor, the Employee or the Union representative shall present the grievance in writing to the Chief Financial Officer or his or her designated representative. (C) The Chief Financial Officer or his or her designated representative shall within ten (10) days from the day it was received, make a determination and submit the determination to the aggrieved party in writing. (D) Each party reserves the right to litigate a question presented by the Grievance by bringing an original action in any court of competent jurisdiction in the event such party shall not be satisfied with the resolution of the Grievance. However, no such litigation may be maintained until all available steps under this grievance procedure have been pursued and exhausted. It is understood and agree to between the parties that the role of the Chief Financial Officer or his or her designee in the grievance procedure is not an exercise of a judicial or quasi-judicial function, but solely as a means to allow the parties to resolve disputes informally.
