During which one of the following steps of the grievance procedure, might the president of the local union meet with the manager of the plant at which the employee with the grievance works?
Answer option B is correct.
The four stages of the grievance procedure are: Initiate the complaint, Escalate the complaint internally, Reach the highest level of internal escalation, and then Participate in binding arbitration. The second phase of the grievance procedure likely has the local union's president meet with the plant manager to try to find a resolution.
