Rule 621-11.2 - Filing of appeal

(1)Grievances. An employee, except an employee covered by a collective bargaining agreement that provides otherwise, who has filed a grievance and is not satisfied with the director's response, may file an appeal with the agency. Such appeal must be filed within 30 calendar days following the date the director's response was issued. However, if no response was issued by the director within 30 calendar days following the filing of the third-step grievance with the director, the employee may consider the grievance denied and file an appeal with the agency or may await the director's response and, if not satisfied, file an appeal within 30 days following the date the response is issued.

(2)Disciplinary appeals. A nonprobationary merit system employee as described in Iowa Code section 8A.412, except an employee covered by a collective bargaining agreement, who is discharged, suspended, demoted, or otherwise receives a reduction in pay, and who appeals the action to the director and is not satisfied with the director's response, may file an appeal with the agency. Such appeal must be filed within 30 calendar days following the date the director's response was issued. However, if no response was issued by the director within 30 calendar days following the filing of the third-step grievance with the director, the employee may consider the grievance denied and file an appeal with the agency or may await the director's response and, if not satisfied, file an appeal within 30 days following the date the response is issued.

(3)Method of filing. Appeals shall be electronically filed pursuant to 621-Chapter 16.
