Comments:

Section .716(d) - Should address how delivery is made if the person has a designated representative. Section .717(a) - Recommend including documentation designating a representative. Section .717(b) - Recommend adding “or his or her designated representative” between the words “employee” and “and.” Section .806 - Recommend changing the word “will” to “may” in the last sentence. ADR for non-unit employees will not be subject to collective bargaining. Section .807(c)(1) - First sentence, change “return” to “returned” and the phrase “present at the place of employment” is unclear. Isn’t that the same thing as returned? Section .807(k)(7) - Does this time frame still apply if settlement efforts are undertaken by the parties or does that extend the 90 day timeframe. (It should extend the timeframe.) Section .807(k)9) - You specify how much time every third party has in making a decision, except the DoD third parties. If you are going to provide timeframes for some third parties, you need to establish time frames for everyone. You should at least give the appearence of fairness.
