Informal Resolution of Problems Sample Clauses

Informal Resolution of Problems. The parties agree that all problems should be resolved, whenever possible, before the filing of a grievance and encourage open communication between the University and the Housestaff Officer so that resort to the formal grievance procedure will not normally be necessary. A Housestaff Officer may discuss a problem with his/her Program Director or designated institutional official, who may, if the circumstances warrant, arrange an informal meeting between the appropriate administrator and the Housestaff Officer. The grievant may, at his or her option, request the presence of a CIR representative during the attempts at informal resolution of grievances. Informal discussion shall not serve to extend the time within which a grievance must be filed, unless such is agreed to in writing by the University official responsible for the administration of the first formal step of the grievance procedure. Any agreements reached through informal resolution shall be reduced to writing and shall not be precedential, but shall be binding for the current matter only. Informal resolution may take place at any time during the process outlined below. Informal resolution does not modify or alter the terms of this Agreement.
