Decision
[1] On July 5, 2017 a decision issued regarding the eleven grievances filed on behalf
of the Grievor. At the parties’ behest, I remained seized to address any remedial
issues that may arise out of the award. Most recently, I had been advised that
the only outstanding issue was the quantum of damages that were payable to the
Grievor as compensation for injury to her dignity, feelings and self-respect, as per
paragraph 278 (k) of the July 5, 2017 decision. A hearing was convened on
September 19, 2018 to address this issue.
[2] At the hearing the Employer made an offer to the Union to address the damages
issue, but the offer was unacceptable. As such, and in order to streamline the
process, I am directing the parties to make written submissions regarding the
quantum of damages payable to the Grievor.
1) The Employer will file its submissions regarding this issue by October
19, 2018;
2) The Union will file its response submissions by November 9, 2018;
and,
3) The Employer will file its reply submissions, if any, by November 16,
2018.
[3] Should the parties agree to alter these deadlines, they should advise the Board
of the revised time table.
[4] I remain seized.
Dated at Toronto, Ontario this 20th day of September, 2018.

Gail Misra, Arbitrator
