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. Peter Schoenmakers filed two grievances following an incident that took
place on January 31, 2009.
[3]I have considered the facts and submissions in this matter. Further, I have
reviewed various documents including the Memorandum of March 4, 2009 to the
grievor. By all accounts the grievor was treated in an inappropriate fashion on
January 31, 2009. It is not surprising that he said that he was adversely affected.
However, I am of the view that the Employer took the appropriate actions
following the incident and did so in a relatively timely fashion.
[4]Accordingly, the grievances are dismissed.

Dated at Toronto this 16 day of December 2010.
