All grievances must be processed within the time limits herein provided unless extended in writing by mutual agreement between the Labor Relations Officer and the Union President or grieving employees. Section 6. Where an employee covered by this Agreement elects to represent himself or be represented by someone other than the Union, the City will respond through its management representatives consistent with the following steps and time limits.

A grievance shall be processed in accordance with the following procedure: Step 1. The aggrieved employee shall discuss the grievance with his immediate supervisor outside the bargaining unit within five (5) working days of the occurrence which gave rise to the grievance.
