The applicant union sought judicial review of an arbitration award upholding the layoff of two unionized employees.
The union argued the arbitrator unreasonably applied the wrong standard of review by deferring to the employer's assessment of the employees' relative abilities rather than determining correctness.
The Divisional Court dismissed the application, finding the arbitrator's approach was consistent with established arbitral consensus and reasonable.
The court also rejected arguments regarding the arbitrator's delay in issuing the decision.
