Decision
[1] The grievances before me in this case relate to claims for improper balancing of hours.
[2] The case convened for hearing on October 8, 2014. After discussing the grievances, which
involve upwards of one hundred grievors, I decided it was necessary to make an interim order
with respect to procedure in order to streamline the process and make the best use of hearing
time.
[3] As a result, I hereby order as follows:
1 – The union will forward letters to all of the grievors asking each to provide the union
with the full particulars of the matter(s) grieved, such particulars to be provided to the
union no later than January 30, 2015. If particulars are not provided by a grievor by the
deadline, his or her grievance will be deemed to be withdrawn.
2 – The union will provide the employer with a report outlining the particulars of each
remaining grievance no later than March 13, 2015.
3 – A conference call hearing will be scheduled for October 27, 2014, at 10:00 a.m. in
order to deal with the issues related to Appendix COR1.
4 – A hearing will be scheduled for June 1, 2015 to deal with issues related to Article
45.1 and any other appropriate issues that might be identified.
Dated at Toronto, Ontario this 14th day of October 2014.
Barry Stephens, Vice-Chair
