Decision
[1] Two Grievances of Mrs. Barbara Farrell, an employee working with the Ministry of
the Environment, Conservation and Parks, were before me in a teleconference on
December 1, 2021.
[2] There had been an earlier adjournment of these proceedings which had been
scheduled for August 25, 2021.
[3] Employer Counsel had on two separate occasions prior to that date requested
particulars of the Grievor’s allegations of harassment and discrimination.
[4] Those requests had not been satisfied by the scheduled August 25 hearing date.
[5] That hearing date of August 25, 2021 was adjourned for other reasons and
rescheduled to March 2, 2022.
[6] In the circumstances, the Employer Counsel sought an Order for particulars of
these grievances.
[7] Having heard the submissions of Counsel, I ordered and directed verbally as
follows:
a) That the Union shall provide full particulars of the grievances at or before
Tuesday, January 4, 2022;
b) That the failure of the Union to provide particulars at or before that day
may result in the dismissal of the grievances.
[8] I hereby confirm my earlier verbal Order as set out above.
Dated at Toronto, Ontario this 2nd day of December, 2021.
“Joseph D. Carrier”
