Grievance allowed in part; employer ordered to purge file but financial and promotional claims dismissed.
The grievor, a unit manager at a detention centre, filed a grievance alleging that he was targeted by the union and subjected to a campaign of harassment, including a withdrawn sexual harassment complaint and an abandoned disciplinary investigation.
He sought the removal of negative reports from his file, priority for future promotions, and financial compensation for lost vacation credits and legal costs.
The Public Service Grievance Board allowed the grievance in part, ordering the employer to purge the grievor's file of all references to the sexual harassment complaint and the abandoned disciplinary hearing.
The Board dismissed the claims for promotional priority and financial compensation, finding no wrongdoing by the employer that would justify such relief.
