Decision
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.
Terry Gallagher and George McDonald each filed a number of grievances alleging
breaches of various provisions of the Collective Agreement. The parties agreed
that some remedy was appropriate in these circumstances. The parties also agreed
that my compensation award should for a ?net? amount of money.
After considering the facts and submissions provided by the parties I order the
Employer to pay to Mr. Gallagher $1,300. Further, I order the Employer to pay
Mr. McDonald $2,000.
I remain seized in the event of implementation difficulties.
