INVESTIGATORY CONFERENCES Sample Clauses

INVESTIGATORY CONFERENCES. Whenever a conference between an Employee and an administrator is held in which there is an investigation or discussion of a potential disciplinary action (e.g., termination, dismissal, suspension, or a written reprimand that is to be part of the Employee’s personnel file), the Employee shall have the right to have an Association representative present upon request. Employees will be given notice of such conferences at least one (1) business day prior to the conference in order to arrange for Association representation. Such prior notice shall be given in writing or by e-mail and include the topic of the conference. If the Administration and the Employee agree, the conference may occur sooner than one (1) business days after notice of the conference is given to the Employee. Should an emergency necessitate less than one (1) business days’ notice, the Administrator conducting the conference will inform the Employee of his/her right to Association representation before conducting the conference and, if Association representation is requested, wait for that representation to arrive before continuing the conference. A conference to discuss an Employee’s evaluation shall not be construed as the discussion of a potential disciplinary action.
