Decision
[1] The parties have agreed to proceed by expedited mediation/arbitration
pursuant to Article 22.16 of the Collective Agreement. Arbitration decisions issued
in accordance with this article are without reasons, prejudice or precedent.
[2] The parties provided me with their submissions, including the facts,
arguments and authorities they relied upon. The Employer submitted that the
parties had agreed to a negotiated settlement of this matter and, in the alternative,
that the terms of their agreement represents an appropriate and sufficient remedy
in the circumstances of this case. The Union, reviewed the concerns of the Grievor
with respect to various aspects of the settlement and put forward a significantly
greater amount being sought by the Grievor as damages.
[3] Having considered the submissions of the parties, the evidence and case
law submitted to me, I have determined that the Union and the Employer reached a
binding settlement with respect to this matter, which is accurately reflected in the
terms set out in the written Minutes of Settlement prepared by the Employer.
Therefore, I find that the Minutes of Settlement, attached as Appendix B to Exhibit
1, is in effect and is determinative of all outstanding issues in this matter.
[4] I will, however, remain seized in the event that an issue arises with
respect to the interpretation, application or implementation of this decision.
Dated at Toronto, Ontario this 15th day of June 2018.
