Time Limits Since it is important that grievances be processed as rapidly as possible, the number of days indicated at each level should be considered as a maximum and every effort should be made to expedite the process. The time limits specified may, however, be extended by mutual agreement.
Extension of Time Limits The time limits referred to in this Article may be extended by mutual agreement of the parties in writing.
Time Limit Should the Local Church fail to satisfy all of its obligations set forth herein by December 31, 2023, this Disaffiliation Agreement shall be null and void.
Waiver of Time Limits The time limits prescribed above may be extended by mutual agreement in writing between the Union and the Employer.
Failure to Meet Time Limits If a grievance is not processed by the grievant in accordance with the time limits set forth in this Article, it shall be considered settled on the basis of the decision last made by the District. If the District fails to respond to the grievance in a timely manner at any level, the running of the time limit shall be deemed a denial of the grievance and termination of the level involved, and the grievant may proceed to the next step.
Waivers and Time Limits 1. Failure by Management to reply to the employee's grievance within the time limits specified automatically grants to the employee the right to process the grievance to the next level.
Procedure and Time Limits Step Two 100 If the grievance is not adjusted at Step One, the Faculty Member or group of Faculty Members or the Association may, within five (5) working days of the Step One answer, which shall also be concurrently provided to the Assistant Vice President for Academic Affairs, appeal the grievance, in writing, to the appropriate Xxxx or other designated administrative agent, setting forth his/her (their) objections to the Step One answer. Upon receipt of the written appeal or at the signed written notice when initiation is at Step Two, the Xxxx or other designated administrative agent shall promptly arrange a meeting through the EMU-AAUP office to discuss the grievance with the grievant(s), the Association’s Grievance Officer, and such other persons as he/she deems appropriate. It is not appropriate at this level for the grieved department head or other grieved administrative agent involved at the Step One grievance hearing to be present at a Step Two grievance hearing. This discussion shall be completed within seven (7) working days after the filing of the grievance at Step Two. If the grievance is adjusted at this Step to the satisfaction of the grievant(s), the Association’s Grievance Officer and the Xxxx or other designated administrative agent, the adjustment will be reduced to writing, signed by the parties, and a copy provided to each signatory, the EMU-AAUP office and the Assistant Vice President for Academic Affairs. If there is not adjustment, the Xxxx or other designated administrative agent must present his/her reasons in writing to the grievant(s) with a copy to the EMU-AAUP office and the Assistant Vice President for Academic Affairs. The Xxxx or administrative agent shall reduce the adjustment to writing or provide the reasons for denial of the grievance in writing to the grievant(s) within five (5) working days following the Step Two meeting. If, within five (5) working days of receipt thereof, XXX’s Assistant Vice President for Academic Affairs, or his/her designee, serves the Association’s Grievance Officer with written notice of objection to the adjustment on the grounds that the adjustment adds to, subtracts from, or modifies the terms of this agreement, said adjustment shall be deemed null and void and the grievance remanded for further review at Step Two. Within seven (7) working days of notice of remand, the parties’ Step Two representatives and the grievant(s) shall complete their review. The grievance shall thereafter be processed, adjusted or appealed within the timelines and procedures as set forth in this Grievance Procedure.
Time Limits to Submit to Arbitration Failing satisfactory settlement at Step 2, and pursuant to Article 9, the President or his/her designate, may inform the Employer of his/her intention to submit the dispute to arbitration within:
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.
Amending of Time Limits The time limits fixed in both the grievance and arbitration procedure may be extended by consent of the parties.
