The process of systemic restoration has been founded on joint objectives and agreed actions to accomplish those objectives. In further consultation with the parties, at the hearing on February 1, 2011, further objectives and actions were agreed RUGLUHFWHGE\PHDIWHUKHDULQJWKHSDUWLHV¶ submissions. This decision records the progress on the outstanding actions previously required of the Employer and the Union, and the additional requirements. [2]Paragraph references are made to the paragraphs in the decision of November 29, 2010. [3]5H? - 3 - 4. Proposal 175 is withdrawn as it offends the Charter rights of individuals; 5. Proposal 145 is withdrawn as it is not required as the Union has always fulfilled this requirement. This leaves only proposals 153, 154, 156, 165, 169 and 179 to be discussed on February 1. [7] As a consequence, the following proposed objectives remained for consideration: 153, 154, 156, 169 and 179. [8] The parties agreed, or I ruled, as follows with respect to these remaining proposed objectives. [9] As regards proposed objectives 153 and 156, the following will apply. In the event of a WDHP complaint being filed, the manager will immediately notify the Superintendent, or her designate, in writing of the complaint. Status reports of the investigation will be provided to the Superintendent. If the complaint concerns the Superintendent or above, the notification and reports will be provided to the next designated level of management. [10] Proposed objective 154 is subject to further consideration. The Employer will investigate and report back on appropriate efforts to ensure that physical evidence is secured. [11] As regards proposed objectives 165 and 169, the following will apply. To assure a WDHP complainant that the Employer has treated a race-based WDHP complaint as a matter of concern, at the conclusion of a substantiated WDHP complaint, the complainant will be entitled, on written request personally or through the Union, to know, in confidence, whether any action was taken against the respondent to the complaint and, if so, whether the respondent was terminated, severely disciplined (being, discipline more severe than a written warning), disciplined, or made subject to corrective action. [12] As regards to proposed objective 179, this issue may be raised by the Union in collective bargaining, but it will not be the subject of a direction from the Board. [13] Regarding ~46 of the decision issued on June 30, 2009, the requirement of health and safety orientation and training for OMs (objective 128), the Employer advised that all OMs have completed the health and safety orientation and training, which has also been satisfied by the Workplace Violence Prevention Policy (WVPP) training. [14] Re ~26 of the decision issued on June 11,2010, Ms. Allyson Ayers' role as a Deputy- Superintendent at the Toronto Jail is now complete, she having fulfilled the function for which she was appointed. [15] Given the progress in the implementation of the objectives and actions required of the parties, the Coordinating Committee is no longer required, having fulfilled its purpose. Further issues between the parties arising from the process they undertook to restore the workplace will be addressed by them through their regular structures. - 4 - [16] The parties will continue to pursue the discussion with the Board regarding the investigation into the hate crimes, this matter remaining unresolved and of continuing concern. A date has been arranged for the further discussion of the investigation review. [17] A further decision will follow on the systemic steps taken by the parties to restore a workplace free from discrimination and harassment at the Toronto Jail. The decision will be a synopsis of all that the parties have undertaken and accomplished since the decision of August 11,2008.
