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]The grievor alleges he should have been called in to work overtime on January 16, 2009.
That evening, the maintenance manager stayed after regular hours to work on re-writing the text
for the black button program, work the grievor alleges is normally performed by members of the
bargaining unit. The employer responds that the manager performed the work as a training
opportunity under the guidance of the contractor so that he would be familiar with the process.
[3]After reviewing the submissions of the parties and the collective agreement, it is my
conclusion that the grievance should be dismissed.
nd
Dated at Toronto this 22 day of March 2010.
Barry Stephens, Vice-Chair
