The supervisor will conduct a meeting with the employee to review the performance or conduct at issue. The employee has a right to union representation at the meeting. If warranted, the supervisor will present a written memorandum following such meeting documenting the unsatisfactory work performance or unacceptable conduct and the dates of the suspension without pay. All documentation of suspensions without pay is filed in the employee’s personnel file. Suspensions without pay or when fines are imposed are subject to the grievance procedures and arbitration.
