The applicants had filed a grievance against a disciplinary measure – in it, they mentioned only the process by which the discipline had been imposed – the employer responded both to the process and to the disciplinary action and denied the grievance – the applicants sought an extension of time to file a grievance about the disciplinary action – the employer argued that it would be redundant as the grievance was already at adjudication, and the employer agreed that it included the disciplinary action – the Chairperson ruled that an amendment to the grievance would suffice, given the employer’s agreement – there was no need for an additional grievance, and therefore, the applications for an extension of time were denied.

Applications dismissed.
