Decision
[1] In April of 2011, the parties signed a Memorandum of Agreement for the Med/Arb
process within this Ministry. In that agreement it was agreed that overtime
grievances would be dealt with on a regular basis at every institution. It was the
stated expectation that the parties would “move forward together in a timely
manner to resolve as many outstanding overtime grievances” as possible at each
institution. Monthly meetings were to be scheduled for this purpose. It was hoped
that these monthly overtime grievance sessions would resolve most grievances.
[2] It was also agreed in the Memorandum that Med-Arb sessions would be held to
deal only with overtime grievances from time to time. The parties would meet to
attempt resolution of the outstanding grievances and the remaining disputes
would be put before this Board.
[3] In May of 2012 the first decision from this process was issued. As agreed by the
parties, that decision was without prejudice and without reasons. There have
been further sessions and decisions issued. The process has not been altered.
[4] The parties on February 23rd, May 13th and June 10th, 2016. Overtime grievances
were heard from Central North Correctional Centre, Toronto South Detention
Centre, Maplehurst Correctional Complex, Vanier Centre for Women, Brockville
Jail and Ottawa Carleton Detention Centre.
[5] Both parties presented facts, supporting documents and submissions regarding
the various disputes. Attached as Schedule A is the list of grievances and the
disposition of this Board. Any monies that are owing to individual grievors as set
out in the attached are to be paid at the appropriate overtime rate less statutory
deductions.
