Decision
[1] The grievance claimed that the Employer had violated the management rights
clause, under Article 2.1 of the collective agreement and the Grievor’s rights
under Article 20 (Employment Stability) by improperly surplusing the Grievor.
[2] The parties agreed that I should award a “bottom line” decision without reasons.
[3] After hearing the submissions of Counsel and reviewing the documents and case
law filed. I find that the Grievor was properly surplused and this grievance is
dismissed.
Dated at Toronto, Ontario this 16th day of October 2014.
Belinda Kirkwood, Vice-Chair
