Decision
[1]The Employer and the Union at the Central East Correctional Centre agreed to participate
in the Expedited Mediation-Arbitration process in accordance with the negotiated
Protocol. Most of the grievances were settled through that process. However, a few
remained unresolved and therefore require a decision from this Board. The Protocol
provides that decisions will be issued within a relatively short period of time after the
actual mediation sessions and will be without reasons. Further, the decision is to be
without prejudice and precedent.
[2]Mr. Narlan Burns is a Correctional Officer who filed a grievance regarding the
scheduling of work on three statutory holidays, specifically December 25, 2007, January
1, 2008 and September 4, 2008.
[3]I have considered the facts and submissions made by the parties and I am compelled to
dismiss the grievance.

Dated at Toronto this 12 day of January 2010.
