The Grievance Committee is composed of members who, on their days off,  assist and represent their fellow flying partners. The Committee's primary responsibility is to provide representation to our members in mandatory meetings with America West.  We also provide advise on contractual issues as well as the filing of grievances.  It is important to remember to call the Grievance Hotline as soon as possible after stetting up the time and date of your meeting with the Company.  We do request that you give at least 48 hours notice to the Hotline prior to your meeting as to allow for the assigning of a Grievance Representative.
