Decision
[1]Mr. Steve Sutherland, a correctional officer with the Ministry, grieved on September 19,
2010 that he was wrongly denied an overtime opportunity on August 13, 2010. The
employer submitted that there was no violation of the collective agreement.
[2]The parties referred this grievance 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 this matter. 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 deny this grievance.
