52 Employee Grievances
USU embraces the philosophy of fair, respectful, and equitable treatment for all university employees (USU Policy 321: Respectful Workplace). Before filing a grievance, staff employees are required to make their best efforts and attempt to resolve problems or complaints informally with their immediate supervisor or the next higher level of supervision. Only when the staff employee has not received a satisfactory resolution of his/her problem through informal methods should they go through the employee grievance process outlined here.
