21.02 Prior to any discipline being imposed, the employee will be given notice in writing to attend a meeting, during which there shall be an opportunity for full discussion between the employee and the employee’s Manager. The notice will contain the subject matter to be discussed at the meeting and the employee shall be advised of his/her right to have an Association representative attend as an advisor. The management representative also has the right to have a labour relations representative attend as an advisor.

Unless otherwise agreed, the unavailability of an advisor will not delay the meeting for more than one (1) working day from the date of notification to the employee.

The Employer will agree where possible to an additional day of extension where the Association representative is unavailable.

Where practicable, the employee shall receive a minimum of one (1) day’s notice of such a meeting. The Employer will agree where possible to an additional day of extension where the Association representative is unavailable.
21.06 When any discipline is found to be unjustified all documents referring to the discipline imposed shall be removed as soon as reasonably possible from the employee’s record and destroyed.

The Employer shall inform the employee in writing of the destruction of any document or written statement related to disciplinary action.
21.09 The NAV CANADA Code of Business Conduct will not be interpreted as restricting an employee from exercising his or her obligations flowing from the ethical standards of the professional body to which the employee belongs.

13.04 A grievance claiming unjust discharge or suspension shall be submitted in writing to the Director of Human Resources within five (5) days of the date that the Union and the Xxxxxxx have been notified in writing of such discharge or suspension and it shall commence at Step 2 of the grievance procedure.
13.05 Should it be found upon investigation that an employee has been unjustly suspended or discharged, such employee shall be immediately reinstated in his former position without loss of seniority and shall be compensated for all time lost in an amount equal to his normal earnings during the pay period next preceding such discharge or suspension, or by any other arrangement as to compensation which is just and equitable in the opinion of the Parties or in the opinion of a Board of Arbitration, if the matter is referred to such a Board.
13.06 Any disciplinary notation or warning in writing shall be removed from an employee's record after a period of eighteen (18) months in which he has not received any disciplinary warning or suspension. The Employer shall provide any disciplinary letter within a reasonable period of time. In the case of any unreasonable delay in issuing such letter, the parties may by strict mutual agreement revise the date of issuance accordingly.
DISCIPLINE AND DISMISSAL 27.01 The Employer may discipline, suspend or dismiss an employee for just cause only, except for the dismissal of a probationary Employee. Unsatisfactory conduct or performance by an Employee which is considered by the Employer to be serious enough to be entered on the Employee's record but not serious enough to warrant suspension or dismissal shall result in a written warning to the Employee and a copy to the Union within fifteen (15) days of the date the Employer first became aware of, or reasonably should have become aware of the occurrence of the act. The Union shall not deny a request by the Employer to extend the timelines due to availability of persons identified by the Employer to be interviewed. A written warning that is grieved and determined to be unjustified shall be removed from the Employee's record.
27.02 In the event an Employee is suspended or dismissed, the Employer shall provide written reasons for the suspension or dismissal to the Employee and the Union forthwith and in any event not later than five (5) days of the action being taken. The action or suspension or dismissal shall be within fifteen (15) days of the date the Employer first became aware of, or reasonably should have become aware of the occurrence of the act, giving rise to the suspension or dismissal. The Union shall not deny a request by the Employer to extend the timelines due to unavailability of persons identified by the Employer to be interviewed. When action involves a suspension, the notice shall specify the time period of the suspension.
27.03 An Employee who has been subject to disciplinary action may after two (2) years of continuous service from the date the disciplinary measure was invoked, request in writing that their personnel file be cleared of any record of the disciplinary action.

The Employer shall confirm in writing to the Employee that such action has been effected.
27.04 The procedures stated in Articles 27.01, 27.02 and 27.03 do not prevent immediate suspension or dismissal for just cause.

27.06 In the event that an Employee is reported to their licensing body by the Employer, the Employee shall be so advised, and unless otherwise requested a written copy shall be forwarded to the Union forthwith. In the event, an Employee is reported to their licensing body, by someone other than the Employer, the Employee shall advise the Employer of such and the Employee may copy the Union on such notification.
27.07 An Employee absent for three (3) consecutive work days without good and proper reason and without notifying the Employer shall be considered to have terminated their Employment with the Employer.
