Resources: Grievance Handling Best and Worst Practices

On the webinar "Grievance Handling: Best and Worst Practices" we will review a video of a union grievance investigation and meeting with management.

We will look at both the strengths and weaknesses of the union's grievance handling. Hint: it isn't perfect! 

Here are handy resources that we will reference in the webinar:

Obey Now, Grieve Later

Elements Needed To Prove Insubordination

Sample Information Request for Discipline

Discipline & Discharges: The First Meeting

Investigation Checklist

Points on Grievance Presentation

Arbitrator's Guidelines for Approaching Ten Grievance Issues

Investigation Procedures For Discipline & Discharge Cases

Here is the video that we evaluate in the workshop. NOTE: this video is NOT a model of good grievance handling. When you watch it, use the resources to think about what should have been done differently.
