Informal Complaints. When employees feel dissatisfied with an aspect of employment over which they have no control and when they desire remedial action, they are encouraged to present the problem informally to their immediate supervisor. If not resolved at this level, employees can discuss the matter with their chain of command or file a grievance. Employees shall be assured freedom from discrimination, coercion, restraint, or reprisal in presenting complaints. This Article shall not suspend time limitations for the filing of a grievance or appeal.
