Decision
[1] The Employer and the Union at the Toronto Intermittent 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.
[2] Mr. Ian D’Souza is a fixed term Correctional Officer. He filed two
grievances that allege he is being improperly scheduled to work by the Employer.
He also alleged bullying and harassment in this regard.
[3] After hearing the facts and submissions of this matter I must dismiss the
grievances. The grievor signed a Fixed Term Contract that stated he agreed to
make himself available up to and including 40 hours per week and that failure to
do so may result in his contract not being renewed. The Employer relied upon that
agreement in its scheduling of the grievor and it is entitled to do so.
Dated at Toronto this 28th day of March 2012.
Felicity D. Briggs, Vice-Chair
