Decision
[1] Mr. Donald Stockwood, a CO at the Toronto East Detention Centre, grieved
on February 17, 2012 that the employer breached the collective agreement in
issuing discipline without just cause. The employer submitted it had not
violated the collective agreement.
[2] The parties referred this grievance to mediation/arbitration in accordance
with Article 22.16 of the collective agreement. At the outset of the hearing
the parties agreed that I had the jurisdiction to deal with this matter. They
asked that I issue a decision without precedent or prejudice, and without
written reasons.
[3] Having carefully considered the submissions of the parties, as well as the
jurisprudence of the Board, I find that there has been no violation of the
collective agreement and hereby deny this grievance.
Dated at Toronto, Ontario this 24th day of June 2013.
Deborah J.D. Leighton, Vice-Chair
