No It's not green grocer!
It can also go up for labor manager. Here my center manager once agreed to pay a grievance then he said his boss didn't aprove it. So now, to save each others time I just give to our BA so it can go straight upstairs to resolve it.
Any agreement by both parties, company and Union, at any level is binding to both parties. If he agreed as did you the grievance should have been paid, regardless of who above objected. That's when the center manager gets his A** kicked from above!!
