Such grievances must be designated as Union grievances at the initial step and must comply with the time limits previously set forth in this Article.
Union Grievances. Grievances affecting a group of employees, an entire department or the plant as a whole, may be taken up by the Union at the first level of the Grievance Procedure competent to deal with the group, department or plant. Thereafter, if a satisfactory solution is not reached, the matter may be processed through the remaining steps of the Grievance Procedure to Arbitration.

A Union policy grievance which is defined as an alleged violation, misinterpretation, or wrong application of this Agreement, may be lodged by the Grievance Committee in writing with the Administrator at Step No. 2 of the Grievance Procedure within ten (10) working days after the circumstances giving rise to such grievance occurred.

13.02 If such complaint is not settled to the mutual satisfaction of the conferring Parties, it may be referred to arbitration in the same way as the steps of the grievance procedure of an employee.
