Decision
[1]Mr. Richard Fletcher, a correctional officer at the St. Lawrence Valley
Correctional and Treatment Centre, filed a grievance on June 30, 2007,
alleging that the employer breached the collective agreement with regard to
overtime. The employer denied that it had violated the collective agreement.
[2]The parties referred these grievances to mediation/arbitration in accordance
with Article 22.16 of the collective agreement. At the outset of the hearing
the parties agreed that I had the jurisdiction to deal with these matters. They
asked that I issue a decision without precedent or prejudice, and without
written reasons in accord with the policy of the parties for expedited hearings
under Article 22.16.
[3]Having carefully considered the submissions of the parties, as well as the
jurisprudence of the Board, I hereby grant this grievance and order the
Ministry to pay the grievor twelve (12) hours at the overtime rate.
