By how many calendar days must a grievance request be filed from the event date or when the member is aware of the issue?

A grievance request must be filed within 60 calendar days from the date of the event or when the member becomes aware of the issue. This timeframe is established to ensure that grievances are addressed in a timely manner, allowing members to voice their concerns and seek resolution. The 60-day period allows enough time for members to organize their thoughts and gather any necessary documentation about their grievances, while also promoting prompt action by the organization in handling complaints.

Members need to be aware of this timeline to ensure that their grievances are considered, as any requests submitted after this deadline may not be accepted, potentially leaving issues unresolved.
