| | English translation:file a grievance, initiate a grievance procedure | Explanation:
Checking out the descriptions on line of the Spanish "conflicto colectivo", I would say it sounds more like what US labor would call a grievance procedure. (These are filed when the agreements made during collective bargaining are allegedly broken.)

Dear Neal, I think we are on the same page; have a look at this description of a grievance procedure. It involves similar steps, such as the three you name, leading finally to binding arbitration. http://www.beyondintractability.org/essay/grievance_procedur... |

Asker: I believe you are on the right track, but when I look at the Spanish law, I see 3 rights listed. They are: conciliation, mediation, and arbitration. Filing a grievance is not mentioned.
