Decision
[1] Ms. Shelley Joynes, a Correctional Officer at Sarnia Jail, grieved on October 23, 2009, that
the employer breached the collective agreement by not posting the schedule. The employer
submitted that there was no violation of the collective agreement and the schedule had been
posted electronically.
[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.
[3] Having carefully considered the submissions of the parties, as well as the jurisprudence of
the Board, I find that there has been no violation of the collective agreement and hereby deny
this grievance.
Dated at Toronto this 13th day of February 2013.
Deborah J.D. Leighton, Vice-Chair
