The grievers are electricians, classified as Maintenance Electrician,
working out of the District 2 Services Building in London. On August 27,
1986, they filed their grievances, claiming that .they are wrongly classified, 1
and that they would be properly classified as Maintenance Foreman.
The central issue in this case is the extent to which these gentlemen
exercise supervision over skilled tradesmen.
The class standard for Maintenance Electrician is found in Appendix
A to this award. The significant part of that standard for our purposes is
the first four paragraphs. One sees there that this classification involves
for the most part skilled hands-on work. Insofar as supervision of others is
concerned, the job “may also entail the supervision and instruction of
apprentices, unskilled or semi-skilled workers...” (from the sentence which
begins in the sixth line from the end oft paragraph one). There is no
supervision of journeymen.
The class standard for Maintenance Foreman is found in Appendix B
to this award. The hallmark of this classification is the supervision of “at
least two employees at the Journeyman level in the performance of a wa
x&& of skilled mamtenance tasks....” (in the first sentence of the Class
Definition--emphasis is in the original).
The Ministry builds and maintains a number of highway services
which require electrical power- signalized intersections, street-lighting,
patrol buildings, truck weigh scales, lift bridges, bridge decks with
cathodic protection, and so on. The grievors are the two full-time
electricians in District 2 and they are involved in virtually all the electrical
work done with respect to these highway services. Either they take out 7
crews to do the electrical construction and maintenance (generally the
grievors do not work together, but will be in charge of different crews in
the field), in which case the grievors do hands-on work and supervise the
other members of the crew. Or the grievors will oversee electrical work
being done’ by contractors who have been given particular projects to do.
‘0
3
There are three basic situation in which the grievors will find
themselves- construction work by Ministry employees directly,
construction work by contractors, maintenance work by Ministry
employees.
If construciion work is being done by Ministry employees directly,
the grievors will be involved in the project from the outset. They will go
over the drawings with the Electrical Supervisor, Mr. P. Beech (he was
called the Electrical Foreman until January 1987); figure out the material,
manpower and equipment needed; order the materials; arrange for the
location of underground pipes, wires, etc.; instruct Ontario Hydra to run
power to the project; form the work crew; instruct each individual what to
do at the site; do some of the hands-on electrical work; inspect the work in
progress and ‘order ‘corrections. The composition of the work crews will
vary depending on the project to be accomplished. There may be a
maintenance mechanic (who is a journeyman), linemen to string cables for
traffic signals and street lighting (some journeymen, some not-in October
1986, ,the Ministry began hiring journeymen linemen on an as-needed ’
contract basis), electricians (journeymen-in early 198’7, the Ministry
began hiring additional journeymen electricians on an as-needed contract
basis), and laborers.
If construction work is being done by contractors, there may be an
electrical sub-contractor doing the electrical work. The grievors will
check this work on a’regular .basis to ensure that it is according to the
requisite standards, and will order corrections if needed. The grievors will
deal with the contractor’s foreman, who will relay orders to the sub-
contractors or contractor’s journeymen.
If maintenance work is being done by Ministry employees, the
grievors’ role is similar to the situation of construction work done by
Ministry employees. In essence, the grievors are in charge of the work at
4
the site, and again the work crews will vary depending on the work to be
done.
The grievors’ position specification is found in Appendix C to this
award. It was developed after their grievances were filed. The grievors
did not have any input into this specification and say, it is incorrect. They
say that duty nuniber 1 (which involves the hands-on work) requires 30%
of their time, not 60%;. and that duty number 2 (which involves the
supervision of others) requires 60% of their time, not 30%. This comment
by the grievors is not seriously challenged~by anyone who has direct
knowledge of what the grievers do.
After the grievances were filed, the Ministry agreed that their old
position specification was not accurate. Mr. Beech, &heir immediate
supervisor, and the best person in management to know what they do, drew
up ~a new specification. It is found in Appendix D to this award. It is
notable that this specification says that the grievers provide technical
supervision to the project work crew for 60% of the time.
However, higher management (in particul& Mr. C. ‘Hennum, the
District Engineer) suggested that this draft specification overemphasized
the supervision done by the grievors tid the specification found in
Appendix A was substituted for Mr. Beech’s effort.
At first glance, the specification found in Appendix C appears to
place lesser emphasis on the grievers’ supervision of others. But the
testimony at our hearing made it clear that, if one is ,very clever, one will
notice that this is not necessarily so. Mr. Beech testified that he went along
with the abandonment of his draft specification because the one in Y
Appendix C commences the list of job duties with the preambular words
“performs such duties by supervising, co-ordinating and participating in
the work of’. In other words, “stipervision” could be part of everything
the grievors do!
5
In our view, the structure of the specification in Appendix C is
misleading. The general reader, and in particular the classifier himself,
does not notice that “supervision” comes up both in the preambular wqrds
and then again specifically in duty number 2. The .impression which one is.
intended to get from Appendix C ‘is that only 30% of the grievors’ job
involves supervising others, and this is not correct. Jhis characterization
does not have the support of the people who really know what the grievors
are doing. It is cIear from the evidence of Messrs. McGee, Edmonds and
Beech that providing technical supervision to project work crews involves
about 60% of the grievors’ job. Classification must be based on an
accurate summary of actual job content.
Now, how much of this supervision is over journeymen? The
evidence is not precise in this regard. It appears that there will be other
journeymen in the grievors’ crews about 20% of the time. In addition,
there are many times when the grievers will oversee work being done by
contractors who have journeymen electricians or linemen in their work
complement. It does not appear that the grievers have supervision over
two or more other journeymen very often at all.
Thus, the’grievors’ jobs appear to fall between two stools. On the
one hand, they do exercise supervision over journeymen for a significant
part of their time, and therefore they clearly exercise a greater degree of
supervision than is contemplated in the class standard for the Maintenance
Electrician (which involves no supervision over journeymen). It is very
significant that this supervision over journeymen is simply not
acknowledged by Mr. H. Tutt, ,who is the personnel employee who
classified the grievors. In Appendix C, wherein Mr. Tutt gave his reasons
for his classification of the grievors as Maintenance Electrician, he says
that they provide “supervision and on-the-job training of unskilled or semi-
skilled workers”, but he makes no mention of their supervision of
journeymen (see at the bottom of the first page and top of the third page of
6
Appendix C). On the other hand, they do not exercise as much supervision
over journeymen as is contemplated by the class standard for the
Maintenance Foreman (which involves supervision over at least two
journeymen).
This situation occurs elsewhere in the.Ministry. Mr. B. Dubblestyne
works in pistrict 3. He is classified as a Maintenance Foreman on an
atypical basis. His position specification is found in Appendix E to this
award, and it is accurate according to his testimony at our hearing. In our
view, the grievers’ job is essentially, the same as Mr. Dubblestyne’s.
And Mr. R. Metcalfe works in District 4. He is classified as a
Maintenance Foreman on an atypical basis. His position specification is
found in Appendix F to this award, and it is accurate according to his
testimony at our hearing. In our view, the grievers’ job is essentially the
same as Mr. Metcalfe’s.
Both in District 3 and District 4, there are more full-time
journeymen’ that in District 2. However, it appears to us that each district
has a different way of handling its workload. In some cases, it is felt best
to employ full-time ,joumeymen. In others, there are few full-time
journeymen, but journeymen are hired as needed on a contract basis, and
contractors are engaged and their crews include journeymen. Whichever
method is adopted to’get the work done, in our view, on site the grievors
do essentially the same work and the same supervision as their colleagues in
District 3 and District 4, This view is shared by Mr. Beech, the grievors’
supervisor. who knows best what the grievors do. It would also appear
that this view is shared by Mr. J. M. Holdsworth, the Head of District
Engineering Services,, who is Mr. Beech’s supervisor, In July 1986, Mr.
Holdsworth took a look at what was happening elsewhere, in particular in
District 4, and he recommended to the Head of Personnel Services for the
Southwest Region that the similarity between these positions be considered.
We have his memorandum to this effect in evidence.
7
In our view, the Ministry’s atypical classification of Dubblestyne and
Metcalfe makes eminent good sense. The same classification should apply
to the grievors. They are not properly classified as Maintenance
Electricians, because they do much more supervising than is contemplated
in this class.standard. They do supervise journeymen, though this was not
acknowledged by Mr. Tun in Appendix C. They should be reclassified as
Maintenance Foreman as of August 27, 1986, as they requested in their
grievances.
We order this reclassification and compensation for any monetary
losses they’suffered as a result of the incorrect classification from that date.
We wiU.‘reserve our jurisdiction to determine any matter flowing out of
this order which the parties are unable to resolve.
Done at London, Ontario, this 9th day of December , 1988.
