The issue to be decided was “what time period is meant to be grievable.” Article 20.05 requires that an employee be a bargaining unit member and the grievance must be filed within 20 calendar days of the grievant knowing or reasonably should have known of the event that gave rise to the grievance. These two elements cannot be separated. A non-bargaining unit member cannot file a grievance even if the person has a cause of action. As the promoted former bargaining unit members were no longer members when the cause of action arose, they cannot file a grievance. The grievance was found not to be ARBITRABLE.
