The professional practice process is your tool to report and address concerns that impact your ability to practice according to your standards of practice, code of ethics, and any other relevant policies and guidelines.

Dispute Resolution<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dispute Resolution is the process outlined in the Collective Agreement that members must follow when faced with a potential grievance. There are important timelines<\/a> associated with this process so if you believe you are facing a situation which requires the dispute resolution process contact your local shop steward or branch executive and consult the resources that follow. Visit here<\/a> to access the grievance form. Follow RNU\u2019s David Hammond as he walks through the Dispute Resolution and Grievance process in the video resources on myRNU.<\/p>\n
