Filing a Grievance Process 

Apprentices should submit all formal grievances to the Director of Operations via the following email address:

Written grievances should include:

• Apprentice’s name and program;
• The date that the Apprentice experienced the adverse actions or decision that led to their grievance;
• The Apprentice’s specific concerns or allegations;
• The name(s) of any other Participants, Apprentices, and/or third parties involved in the grievance;
• The outcome of any attempts to resolve the issue prior to filing a formal grievance;
• The outcome/resolution that the Apprentice is seeking.

STRIVE will investigate any grievances filed. Within five (15) calendar days of receipt of the student’s written statement, the Director of Operations will:

• Meet with the Apprentice to discuss the grievance, and
• Investigate the grievance fully, including, if necessary, holding a hearing to give all parties an opportunity to present evidence and provide statements relevant to the matter.

The Director of Operations will provide a written decision within three (15) calendar days of concluding their investigation. A written copy of the decision will be provided via email to all parties involved.

1. STRIVE  will attempt to resolve all issue(s) raised in the grievance and take appropriate corrective and remedial actions based on the findings of the investigation. Resolutions may include a mediated conversation between all parties, additional training, removal from the program, or any other actions deemed necessary by STRIVE to resolve the grievance. The student’s original written complaint and STRIVE's decision will be retained.
2. If the Participant/Apprentice feels as though the grievance has still not been resolved after following the process above, the Apprentice may submit an appeal to the following: Information@striveca.org

All grievances will be addressed confidentially, unless maintaining confidentiality would impede the ability to investigate and/or address the concerns raised in the grievance.
