United Steelworkers Local 9511 operates the grievance portal to help authorized union representatives prepare and track grievances.
What the portal collects and uses. The portal reads the email address associated with your signed-in Google account to check your access and identify the account that submitted a grievance. The form collects grievance details entered by the steward, including the employee’s name, employee number if available, job title, location, grievance details, and the steward’s name and drawn signature. The portal records submission dates and grievance status.
How records are stored and accessed. The portal stores submissions in a restricted Google spreadsheet. It creates reports using Google Docs and stores completed PDFs and signature images in a restricted Google Drive folder. Google provides the sign-in, document, and storage services. Authorized union representatives with access to the tracker or shared files can view the records stored there, including existing records. The portal does not publish records or automatically send grievances to an employer.
Questions about records. Contact usw9511grievances@gmail.com with questions about the portal’s data practices or to request access to, correction of, or deletion of information. Please avoid including grievance details in your initial email.
The USW 9511 Grievance Portal’s use of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
