Suspension and Discharge Grievances. The termination or suspension of a probationary employee shall not be the subject of a grievance or arbitration. A claim by an employee who has completed the probationary period that the employee has been discharged or suspended without just cause shall be treated as a grievance if a written statement of such grievance is lodged by the employee with the Chief Administrative Officer, or designate, at Step 2 within seven (7) calendar days following the date on which notice of the discharge or suspension was issued. A Board of Arbitration may resolve such grievance by: (a) confirming the management’s action in dismissing or suspending the employee; or, (b) reinstating the employee with full, partial or no compensation for time lost, benefits, and with or without seniority or service credits; or, (c) any other arrangement which is just and equitable in the circumstances.
