PART IV - OTHER PROVISIONS
39. - GRIEVANCE RESOLUTION PROCEDURES
39. - GRIEVANCE RESOLUTION PROCEDURES
(1) The grievance resolution procedures set out in this clause cover
grievances over decisions taken at a workplace and which affect one or
more employees at that workplace. The resolution of a grievance under
these procedures should be capable of being implemented by action at the
workplace.
(2) The grievance resolution procedures set out in this clause do not apply
to:
(a) disputes related to conditions of employment (including
entitlements to salary, leave and the like), as well as disputes
related to equal employment opportunity and occupational health and
safety which are covered by specific Acts and Regulations;
(b) disputes which cannot be resolved at a workplace level because they
are due to the application of system-wide policies or are the result
of decisions by the central office of the employer;
(c) issues which arise through staff disagreements and/or interpersonal
conflict which do not have their basis in a workplace decision or
process will not be dealt with by the formal grievance procedure.
(3) Issues which are not capable of resolution through the grievance
process because they do not arise from school based decisions, shall be
dealt with directly between the central office of the employer and the
union in accordance with normal procedures for dealing with such issues.
(4) In the operation of these grievance resolution procedures, the parties
recognise the right of employees and a school administration to approach
the union or Department for advice or assistance without any repercussions.
(5) In dealing with grievances the following principles should be
fundamental:
(a) grievances should be discussed and resolved within a general
framework of co-operation which emphasises prevention of further
disputes rather than just a cure;
(b) as far as possible grievances should be handled using the normal
management structure;
(c) resolution of grievances should occur at the lowest possible level,
eg where a grievance arises at the school level there should be a
genuine attempt to resolve the grievance at this level;
(d) resolution of grievances should occur as quickly as possible to
avoid the negative effects of ongoing problems at the work place;
(e) joint management/employee consultative mechanisms should be
actively promoted at all levels as a means of achieving shared
objectives through co-operation;
(f) teachers have the right to raise legitimate grievances without
threat of repercussion;
(g) the implementation of these procedures shall take place without
delay and be completed as soon as practicable;
(h) confidentiality shall be maintained at all times in the resolution
of a grievance, including the outcome, unless otherwise agreed to by
the Education Department and the union.
(6) The procedures to be followed when an employee wishes to lodge a
grievance are:
(a) Where a grievance arises at a worksite, in the first instance the
matter should be dealt with in an informal manner. An attempt should
be made by the aggrieved party to resolve the grievance with their
immediate superordinate. Consultation with senior school staff,
officers at the district or central level and the union office may
take place as a normal management process in order to attempt to
resolve the matter prior to the commencement of the formal grievance
procedures set out below.
If a grievance cannot be resolved informally it may be considered
under the formal grievance procedures.
(b) The formal grievance resolution procedures shall operate in the
following manner:
(i) The instigation of the grievance procedure in the first
instance is the responsibility of the aggrieved party and such
party must act within three weeks, or as soon as practicable, of
circumstances occurring from which the grievance arises.
(ii) The grievance must be presented in writing in a clear and
concise manner and include the relief sought. The response
acknowledging the grievance and advice of the outcome of
consideration of the grievance will also be in writing.
(iii) Where an employee has a grievance with his or her Principal,
the employee shall be entitled to bypass Level One and go straight
to Level Two of the procedure.
(iv) In circumstances where the grievance relates to a School
Administrator and the District Superintendent, the resolution
process may require the grievance to be considered by another
district consultative committee.
(v) If the issues raised by the grievance have system wide
ramifications, the matter will be dealt with by the
Director-General and the President of the union, or their nominees.
(7) The grievance resolution procedures will operate under two levels:
(a) Level One - Worksite
At this stage the grievance should be considered formally by the
school consultative committee within five working days of its
receipt. The school consultative committee is the body which is
closest to the source of the grievance. The committee shall be
made up of the Principal and the school site union representative.
In the case where there is no school site union representative or
where that person is the Principal, the position should be taken
by another union member from that school who is nominated by the
President of the union or his/her nominee.
The aggrieved party may nominate and be accompanied by a support
person, at this and any subsequent stage. This support person can
advise but not represent the aggrieved party at any stage of the
grievance. Both members of the committee may nominate a deputy
member to attend in his or her stead.
A person who has initiated a grievance or who is the subject of a
grievance is not to be a member of a consultative committee
dealing with that grievance, even if they would normally be a
member under the preceding provisions. If it is not possible, as a
result of this, to form a consultative committee the grievance
will be referred to Level Two.
The worksite grievance committee will be expected to reach an
agreed resolution to the grievance. These resolution/s will be
provided to the parties to the agreement in writing. The
resolution/s will be binding on all parties. The grievance will be
deemed to have been resolved with no access by either party to
pursue the matter further within the grievance process.
Where the worksite grievance committee is unable to reach an agreed
conclusion to the grievance they will inform all parties to the
grievance of the fact. The aggrieved party will then have a period
of ten working days in which he or she may elevate the grievance
to the second level of the process.
(b) Level Two - District Level
At this stage, the matter should be considered formally by the
district consultative committee.
A district consultative committee shall be constituted for each
grievance at this level. The district consultative committee shall
be made up of the District Superintendent and one union member
nominated by the President of the union.
At this stage the consultative committee should attempt to resolve
the issue to appoint where it can be logically handed back to the
school to implement.
If the district consultative committee believes that the issues
raised by the grievance have system wide ramifications, the
committee may seek advice from the Director-General of the
Department and the President of the union, or their nominees, and
take such advice into consideration in determining the grievance.

(c) For the purposes of such discussion an employer shall provide to
the employees concerned and the Union all relevant information about
the changes; including the nature of the changes proposed, the
expected effects of the changes on employees and any other matters
