It is the desire of both parties to this agreement to continue to work harmoniously and to promote and maintain high standards, between the employer and employees, which will best serve the citizens of Oakland County. I. RECOGNITION The Employer recognizes the Union as the exclusive representative of the Sergeants, Lieutenants and Captains of the Oakland County Sheriff's Department, for the purposes of collective bargaining with respect to rates of pay, wages, hours of employment and other terms and conditions of employment, in the following bargaining unit for which they have been certified, and in which the Union is recognized as collective bargaining representative, subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Act 336 of the Public Acts of 1947, as amended. All employees classified as Sergeants, Lieutenants and all Captains of the Oakland County Sheriffs Department excluding all others. MANAGEMENT RESPONSIBILITY The right to hire, promote, discharge or discipline, and to maintain discipline and efficiency of employees, is the sole responsibility of the Employer except that Union members shall not be discriminated against as such. In addition, the work schedules, methods and means of departmental operation are solely and exclusively the responsibility of the Employer, subject, however, to the provisions of this agreement. 2 III. DUES CHECK-OFF (a) The Employer agrees to deduct the union membership initiation fee and dues, once each month, from the pay of those employees who individually authorize in writing that such deductions be made.

IV. BASIS OF REPRESENTATION Section 1 There shall be one steward and an alternate steward. Stewards will be permitted to leave their work, after obtaining approval of their respective supervisors and recording their time, for the purpose of adjusting grievances in accordance with the grievance procedure and for reporting to the grievant a change in status of his grievance. Permission for stewards to leave their work stations will not be unreasonably withheld. Stewards will report their time to their supervisor upon returning from a grievance discussion. 3 The privilege of stewards to leave their work during working hours, without loss of pay, is extended with the understanding that the time will be devoted to the prompt handling of grievances and will not be abused, and that they will continue to work at their assigned jobs at all times except when permitted to leave their work to handle grievances. Section 2 There shall be a grievance committee consisting of the two members of the unit to be selected by the Union and certified in writing to the Employer. The Employer shall meet whenever necessary, at a mutually convenient time, with the union grievance committee. The purpose of grievance committee meetings will be to adjust pending grievances, and to discuss procedures for avoiding future grievances. In addition, the committee may discuss with the Employer other issues which would improve the relationship between the parties. V. GRIEVANCE PROCEDURE The Employer and the Union support and subscribe to an orderly method of adjusting employee grievances. To this end, the Employer and the Union agree that an employee should first bring his problem or grievance to the attention of the Sheriff or his designee with or without his steward within five (5) days of the occurrence, who shall attempt to resolve the grievance informally. Dismissals, suspensions, demotions and disciplinary actions of any type shall not be a subject for the grievance procedure but shall be processed according to the procedures of the Personnel Appeal Board. Step 1 If the grievance is not settled informally, it shall be discussed with the steward and shall be reduced to writing, signed by the grievant and submitted to the Sheriff or his designee. 4 Step 2 The written grievance shall be discussed between the steward and the Sheriff or designee. The Sheriff/designee will attempt to adjust the matter and will give his written decision within five (5) days (excluding Saturday, Sunday, and holidays) of receipt of the written grievance. Step 3 Any grievance not settled at Step 2 may be submitted to the next meeting of the grievance committee. Any grievance not submitted to the next grievance committee meeting, by written notification to the Employer within five (5) days of the immediate supervisor's written decision, shall be considered dropped. Any matter not settled in Step 3 of the grievance procedure may be submitted to final and binding arbitration by either of the parties. A request for arbitration must be submitted by written notice to the other party within fifteen (15) days after the grievance committee meeting. Expenses for arbitration shall be borne equally by both parties. If the parties fail to select an arbitrator, one will be selected under the rules of the Michigan Employment Relations Commission. The arbitrator shall have no power or authority to add to, subtract from, alter or modify the terms of this Agreement, or set a wage rate. Any grievance not appealed from a decision in one of the steps of the grievance procedure, to the next step as prescribed, shall be considered dropped and the last decision final and binding, except that time limits may be extended by mutual written agreement of the parties.
