<br /> 41 <br />ARTICLE 29 - DISCIPLINE AND DISCHARGE <br /> <br />The City is committed to the principle of just cause for discipline, including discharge. Discipline will be <br />appealable to the Everett Civil Service Commission to the extent provided for by the Commission's rules <br />and regulations. In cases of letters of reprimand, suspensions, demotions and terminations, the employee <br />may appeal the discipline through Article 6, Grievances; in the event of such grievance, the employee <br />may not also appeal to the Commission. <br /> <br />DISCIPLINARY FILE RECORDS <br /> <br />Disciplinary material in an employee’s personnel file will be considered in progressive discipline. Upon <br />the employee’s written request to the Fire Chief, documentation of oral reprimand or written reprimands <br />will be removed at seventy-two (72) months with the following exceptions, which shall supersede the <br />provisions stated above: <br /> <br />Any specific date for removal stated on the disciplinary document shall be followed. <br /> <br />Discipline for a violation of the City’s Administrative guidelines covering Harassment, <br /> <br />Discrimination and Workplace Violence shall not be removed from the employee file. <br /> <br />Any disciplinary action involving suspension, demotion or removal of pay equating to 48 hours <br />or more may not be removed. <br /> <br />Last Chance Agreements shall not be removed unless a removal date or circumstance is specified <br />in the document. <br /> <br />
