Decision
[1] This Union policy grievance is scheduled to be heard on Friday, August 12, and on
Tuesday, November 1, 2011. The Union has recently provided the Employer with
particulars. The Employer takes the position that the Union has not provided sufficient
particulars in the circumstances. The Employer therefore requests that the hearing
scheduled for August 12, 2011, be adjourned. The Union opposes this request. A
conference call was held on Monday, August WRGHDOZLWKWKH(PSOR\HU¶V
adjournment request.
[2] After entertaining submissions from counsel, I determined that it was appropriate in the
circumstances to adjourn the hearing scheduled for August 12, 2011. The first day of
hearing will now take place on Friday, September 16, 2011. Further to the discussions
between counsel about how this matter will be heard, the purpose of the hearing will be
to determine if the Union can make out a prima facie case for its policy grievance.
