Policy 4850 – Staff Dispute Resolution

The Board of Education recognizes that in any workplace misunderstandings and disputes arise.
If left unresolved, these disputes could undermine staff morale and can interfere with the
educational mission of the District. The Board has adopted a formal process for dispute
resolution that encourages specified employees to resolve concerns quickly and at the most
immediate administrative level. This policy does not limit the right of any employee to file a
complaint under Policy and Regulation 1300 based on harassment or discrimination because of
an individual’s race, color, national origin, ancestry, religion, sex, disability, age, genetic
information, or any characteristic provided by law.
