Decision
[1] The Employer and the Union agreed to participate in the Expedited Mediation
Arbitration process in accordance with the negotiated protocol. The majority of
the grievances are normally settled pursuant to that process. However, if a
grievance remains unresolved the protocol provides that the Vice Chair of the
Board, based on the evidence provided during the mediation session, will
immediately decide the grievance. The decision will be without reasons, without
precedent and prejudice and will be issued within fifteen working days of the
mediation unless the parties agree otherwise.
[2] On September 28, 2016 the parties at the Stratford Jail agreed to participate in
the Expedited Mediation-Arbitration process in accordance with the negotiated
protocol.
[3] The grievor filed a grievance dated April 5, 2012 claiming that the Employer
violated the collective agreement by suspending him for five days without pay.
[4] After having carefully considered the submissions of the parties I hereby deny
this grievance as there has been no violation of the collective agreement.
Dated at Toronto, Ontario this 30th day of September 2016.
Ian Anderson, Vice Chair
