During our Step 4 meeting, we mutually agreed to consider this grievance resolved based on the following:
If management must delay a steward from investigating or continuing to investigate grievance, management should inform the steward involved of the reasons for the delay and should also inform the steward of when time should be available. Likewise, the steward has an obligation to request additional time and to state reasons why this additional time is needed. Requests for additional time to process grievances should be dealt with on an individual basis and not be unreasonably denied.
