Decision
[1] These matters involved 12 grievances arising out of the probation and parole
offices in Toronto that are part of a multi-organizational unit known as the Guns
and Gangs Unit. The grievances allege health and safety violations of article 9 of
the collective agreement.
[2] Brief attempts were made to mediate the differences between the parties.
Regrettably, those efforts were unsuccessful.
[3] The union had previously provided to the employer a draft document outlining the
particulars of the grievances. Having heard the submissions of the parties, I order
that the union provide full particulars to the employer on or before August 17,
2015. The union said it would be relying upon medical documentation, which
could not be available in such a short time frame. Accordingly, the union is
ordered to provide medical documentation on or before November 1, 2015.
[4] These matters will proceed on dates to be set by the Registrar.
Dated at Toronto, Ontario this 4th day of August 2015.
Daniel Harris
Vice-Chair
