Many grievances are simply due to a lack of communication. Before executing a grievance action, do your best to satisfy the grievance one on one. But, if this is not possible, then use the grievance procedure listed on this page.
Grievance

Any disagreement with management can be grieved. The ultimate goal is to have the matter resolved. There are time constraints involved along the preocess with the initial one being that you have 14 days after becoming aware of your issue to file your grievance. Internally, we have three steps to our grievanve process;

Step I ~ Your grievance is heard by your manager.
Step II ~ Your grievance is heard by Kathy Mikos. VP of Patient Care Services.
Step III ~ Your grievance is heard by Diane Hargreaves, VP of human Resources.

If you are not satisfied with your response at step III, the issue can be advanced to the next step by appeal to INA and asked to be arbitrated. INA owns your grievance at that point, and can choose to arbitrate or not. If you have any questions concerning filing a grievance, contact Grievance Chair Joan Macklin. If you are interested in becoming a Grievance Representative, or just learning more about grievances and your rights under your contract, contact anyone from the Executive Board.
