On appeal to this court, the plaintiffs now present the argument that Saeedi’s union’s use of the grievance *856process served to “invalidate” Saeedi’s claims because he chose to pursue them through the forum provided by the collective bargaining agreement.15 The plaintiffs no longer claim that this deprives the referee of jurisdiction to decide the matter. They claim that Saeedi’s claims “should have been dismissed” because § 4-61dd requires the employee to elect an exclusive forum in which to pursue these claims, and Saeedi elected his exclusive forum when his union filed its grievances.16
