Persons with little formal education, but a well-thumbed copy of the contract and a strong sense of justice and fair play have
provided the best representation that workers have ever received.
A grievance is a complaint by an employee, group of employees, or the union that there has been a violation or misinterpretation
of a specific term of the agreement or that an established policy or practice has been applied unfairly or inequitably.
Avoid insubordinationobey, then grieve.
Any management action that will effect the current and established situation of the members must be negotiated with the union.
Even though management has full authority to establish procedure, in order for it to be valid, and in order to discipline an employee,
the policy must be the result of a formal action by management; a reasonable effort must be made to inform each member that the policy
exists and that it applies to them; and the policy must be uniformly enforced.
