An Individual Grievance may be submitted at Step 1 of the grievance procedure following the attempt to try to resolve the matter as per 36.04. (b) A Group Grievance, which is an unresolved complaint of a group of employees wherein they believe that the Collective Agreement has been improperly interpreted, applied or administered to their collective detriment.

(c) A Policy Grievance which is an unresolved issue arising between the Union and the Employer around the interpretation, application or administration of the Collective Agreement but does not include matters which could be pursued either as an Individual or Group Grievance. A policy grievance may be submitted by the Union or the Employer at Step 2 of the grievance procedure within ten (10) days of when the party became or ought reasonably to have become aware that the circumstances giving rise to the grievance occurred. 36.03 For the purpose of this Article, reference to "days" relating to Steps in the grievance and arbitration procedure shall mean calendar days. 36.04 Employees who have a complaint shall first take the matter up with their Supervisor/Manager within five (5) days when the cause of the complainant occurred or ought to have reasonably come to the attention of the employee. The employee may be accompanied by a Xxxxxxx and the Xxxxxxx may also discuss the matter with the Supervisor/Manager before the grievance is committed to writing. If the matter is not resolved within five (5) days of it first being raised or if the decision of the Supervisor/Manager is not satisfactory to the Xxxxxxx, the Xxxxxxx/Committee Person may appeal the decision by filing a grievance. The grievance will be committed to writing and delivered to the Manager, Supervisor or the Human Resources department within five (5) days after the Xxxxxxx has received the decision. Following the issuance of the grievance, proceed to Step One (1). 36.05 Grievances may also arise from the issuance of a corrective action by the Employer. An employee that is given a corrective action and feels that the subject matter or the punishment resulting from the corrective action is inappropriate may file a grievance within five (5) days after the Xxxxxxx has received the decision. Grievances will be committed to writing and delivered to the Manager, Supervisor or Human Resources department. Following the issuance of the grievance, proceed to Step One (1).
