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 April 19 & 20, 2017 the parties at Central East Correctional Centre agreed to
participate in the Expedited Mediation-Arbitration process in accordance with the
negotiated protocol.
[3] The grievor filed a grievance dated September 6, 2016 claiming that she was
improperly paid while on an acting assignment. The grievor is employed by
Trilcor Industries. The grievance was filed almost one and one half years after
the events giving rise to the grievance. It is clearly out of time and is therefore
dismissed.
Dated at Toronto, Ontario this 25th day of April 2017.
Janice Johnston, Vice-Chair
