In the absence of an established written agency grievance procedure, the aggrieved employee may appeal an employer action as covered in subsection 1 of section 4-07-20.1-02 and section 4-07-20.2-04 directly to human resource management services by following the applicable appeal procedures outlined in section 4-07-20.1-08 or 4-07-20.2-07. Human resource management services shall act upon the appeal in the same manner as an appeal processed through an agency grievance procedure. This avenue of appeal does not negate the requirements for an agency grievance procedure.
