Charge alleged that respondent breached its duty of fair representation, retaliated against charging party, and interfered with charging party’s rights by failing to file a timely request to arbitrate charging party’s grievance. The charging party learned more than six months before she filed the charge that the respondent had failed to file the arbitration request. The charge did not allege that respondent’s continued attempts to move charging party’s grievance to arbitration within the limitations period constituted an unfair practice. Therefore, the charge was untimely.
