Is the tribe a fair employer? Does the grievance procedure serve the tribal employer and its employees? Does the tribe provide meaningful due process for its employees? In this 2 day session due process is defined by evaluating the common law, Indian Civil Rights Act, tribal policy and procedure, and tribal tradition and custom. What is the role of clearly defining expectations for employees? How do tribal employers hold employees accountable to those standards? What formal and informal protocols are in place to provide employees an opportunity to be heard? What is a meaningful grievance, complaint and appeal procedure? If the tribal court has a role, what is that role?
