Decision
[1]The parties have agreed to an Expedited Mediation-Arbitration Protocol. It is not necessary
to reproduce the entire Protocol here. Suffice it to say that the parties have agreed to a
?True Mediation-Arbitration? process, wherein each provides the Vice-Chair with
submissions, which include the facts and authorities each relies upon. This decision is
issued in accordance with the Protocol and with Article 22.16 of the collective agreement,
and is without prejudice or precedent.
[2]These grievances relate to a five-day suspension for insubordination.
[3]After reviewing the submissions of the parties and the collective agreement, it is my
conclusion that the grievance should be allowed in part, and the discipline should be
reduced to four days.
th
Dated at Toronto this 28 day of October 2009.
