Time Limits Each party involved in a grievance shall act quickly so that the grievance may be resolved promptly. Every effort should be made to complete action within the time limits contained in the grievance procedure. However, with the mutual consent of the parties, the time limitation for any step may be extended.
Time Limitation The time limits established in the grievance procedures shall be followed by the parties and the aggrieved employee. If the time limit procedure is not followed by the Union or the aggrieved employee, the grievance shall be considered settled without precedent. If the time procedure is not followed by the Employer, the grievance shall automatically advance to the next step, but arbitration shall only be instituted upon timely written notice by the Union. The time limits established in the grievance and arbitration procedure may be extended by mutual agreement reduced to writing and signed by the parties.
