a) Failure of either party to comply with the form or time requirements of the grievance procedures shall resolve the matter in favor of the other. The parties may mutually extend the time limits in writing at any level of the procedure except in the case of a hearing arising from demotion or discharge of a certified employee.
b) An employee's failure to submit a grievance, or to submit it or appeal it to the next level of this procedure within the specified time limits, shall mean that the employee has withdrawn the grievance or accepted the last answer given in the grievance procedure.

employee shall present the grievance orally to the immediate supervisor
explaining its nature and circumstances within five (5) scheduled working days
after learning of the circumstances or conditions leading to it. The immediate
supervisor shall answer within five (5) scheduled working days of its

2) Step 2: If the
