Written Reprimand A written reprimand may be issued to an employee when appropriate in keeping with provisions of this Article. Such written reprimand shall be dated and signed by the supervisor/designee before it is provided to the employee. If the employee chooses not to sign to acknowledge receipt of the reprimand, it shall be witnessed to document that the employee received the same. Such reprimands shall be filed in the affected employee’s personnel file.
Right to Grieve Disciplinary Action Employees shall have the right to grieve written censures or warnings, and adverse employee appraisals. Employees shall have the right to rebut in writing any disciplinary notice and that rebuttal will be placed in the employee file, but will not be part of the formal disciplinary record. Should an employee dispute any such entry in his/her file, he/she shall be entitled to recourse through the Grievance Procedure and the eventual resolution thereof shall become part of his/her personal record.
