A grievance is a bit like a lawsuit.
If you believe the employer has not followed the terms of your collective agreement, call your Union Representative to tell the union about your concern or complaint.
If the union agrees that management has violated the collective agreement, it will defend your collective agreement rights. If management denies that they have violated the collective agreement, the union can take the matter to arbitration.
At arbitration, a neutral arbitrator listens to presentations from both sides. The arbitrator then makes the final decision on the grievance.
