- Two employees have come to me with their grievances and I've taken it into my attention and asked a few more workers in the morning to validate their complaints.
- I understand the issue here and I acknowledge this.
- At the board room
- Atleast this issue will be resolved.
- since it's a collective issue this case will have to go through collective bargaining and I will have to do further investigation to prepare for the grievance process.

Is there a policy in place at the union on this? Is it necessary for him to check the location where the problem occurred? Does he require any documentation?

- With that said, I will now talk to the employees and find out the facts to validate your answer.
- VERY WELL THEN !
