Wage Claim Grievances - general question

[Concretion]

My local supplement says "Wage claims will only go back for a period of sixty (60) calendar days from the date the employer was notified of such claim". Does that mean that I have more than the normal ten days to file my claim?

No, has to be within 10 days of latest violation, but can get awarded pay from 60 days prior.

My question is - wage grievances need to filed within how many days??? - in other words are all grievances within your individual local 10 working days? The reason for the confusion is: you don't get your pay advice until the end of the next week from being paid.

5 days from wrong advice, but they can go back 60 days to collect the discrepancy. The 10 days that I think you are referring to is the amount of time they get to pay greivance without penalty pay.

I think it is actually 90 days but may vary by supplement.
