§ 2-181. Policy.
It is the policy of the City of Newport News to encourage resolution of employee problems and complaints in an environment wherein employees may freely discuss their concerns with immediate supervisors and upper management. However, to the extent that such concerns cannot be resolved by other means, a grievance procedure is established to afford an immediate method for the resolution of disputes which may arise between the city and its employees. An employee filing a grievance or participating in the grievance of another employee may follow the grievance procedure with complete freedom from reprisal.
