The issue in this grievance is whether management violated the National Agreement by not allowing the regular steward, who was in an overtime status, to investigate a grievance. After reviewing this matter, we mutually agreed to settle this case based on the following understanding:
1. Requests for additional time to process grievances should be dealt with on an individual basis and shall not be unreasonably denied.
2. Management will not delay a union steward time to perform union duties based solely on the fact that the steward is in an overtime status.
Document Type: Step 4 Agreement
