The HR department at Clearwater Electronics received notice that a grievance procedure was filed by an employee. A member of the HR department has met with the employee, a union representative, and the employee’s immediate supervisor to resolve the issue of concern. A resolution was reached, and the employee returned to work. Why is it important to have a grievance procedure?     The grievance procedure provides a way for an employee who misinterprets an agreement to dispute what was previously agreed between the company and the union.   The grievance procedure provides a method to handle employee complaints before they become serious issues.   The grievance procedure notifies the company that litigation is forthcoming.   The grievance procedure allows an employee to be protected from any retaliation from others who might not agree with their complaint.
