ARTICLE XVI
GRIEVANCE
The parties believe that the adoption of a grievance procedure is a most valuable asset in the smooth functioning of a school system and for the improvement of morale. No matter how hard two interacting parties attempt, in good faith., to avoid disagreements, differences of opinions will arise from time to time. An orderly and peaceful method of resolving these differences is infinitely preferable to frustrated acquiescences, disruptive concerted action, or expensive legal action.
A grievance exists when ALSS members or ALSS claim there has been a violation, misapplication, or misinterpretation of the agreement or of any existing rule, policy, or practice of the school system.
Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent any ALSS member from discussing their grievance with their appropriate superior, provided that the resolution of the grievance is not inconsistent with terms and conditions of the employment of the ALSS member represented by ALSS.
A. Definition
1. A "grievance" is a claim by an employee or the Association based upon the interpretation, application, or violation of this Agreement, policies or administrative decisions affecting an employee or group of employees.
2. An "aggrieved person" is the person or persons making the claim.
3. A "party in interest" is the person or persons making the claim and any person who might be required to take action or against whom action might be taken in order to resolve the claim.
B. Procedure
1. Both parties agree that these proceedings will be kept as informal and confidential as may be appropriate at any level of the procedure. Since it is important that grievances be processed as rapidly as possible, the number of days indicated at each level should be considered as a maximum and every effort should be made to expedite the process. The time limits specified may, however, be extended by mutual agreement.
2.
