Grievances in other locals

I was talking to a guy yesterday who was from a neighboring state, different local. While we were talking, he had mentioned that he was going to file a grievance for an incident that happened 8 days ago. I told him that he was too late since we only had 5 working days to file and 10 to file against discipline.

His grievance was not discipline related so he should have only 5 days in the Central. He goes on to tell me that where he is (also Central), he has 10 working days. I'm not a steward so I really didn't want to misspeak but I think he is SOL. He is still a rookie with about a year under his belt.

Anyone else have different time frames in their local that are also in Central?

Southern I believe is 10 working days for all.
Other supplements are all over the board with timeframes. I'm more curious about the other locals in the Central. I haven't filed a grievance in over a year I think, so I might very well be wrong on the timeframes. I thought it was 10 days also but then there was an incident in our building and the driver got the grievance tossed because it was untimely If I remember correctly, he filed around 9-10 days.

Five days here also. Had someone lose a grievance this week at panel because they waited too long

Why wait. If you are going to file, then file immediately. No need in waiting a week or 10 days.
Maybe wait a day or two to have time to talk to management and see if they will correct the problem before filing a grievance. No reason to wait longer.

19 days for a grievance and also 19 days to issue a warning letter here.

You sure he's central states? Half the states around you are also Western. MT ID UT. I can't remember if CO is.
