Service Trades Council Negotiations had an opening session

June 17, 2010, next Main Body negotiation session is scheduled for August 30, 2010

Grievance Update:

Ben Thaden has returned to work

Jose Jose's grievance was granted

Jay Carter was reinstated

Jen Bonnet's grievance was settled

Christopher Birdsong's grievance has been resolved

Christopher Pease's grievance was granted

Courtney Grumney will be returning to work

What to expect from the grievance process...

Although, there are contractual time limits specified in the contract....it is dependant upon what has already been scheduled; including Contarct Negotiation schedule.

A termination grievance is usually scheduled within 6 weeks. Why does it take that long??? Because other grievances have already been scheduled a month in advance.

Non termination grievances can take much longer to be scheduled, as terminations take precedence over other issues, they continue to push back other grievances.

When filing a grievance...it is up to you (the grievant) to provide supporting documentation to the steward.
