Grievor's claim of double CPP and EI deductions on retroactive disability benefits dismissed.
In a supplementary decision following a January 2021 arbitration award, the Grievance Settlement Board addressed the grievor's claim that double CPP and EI deductions were made from his 2013 disability benefits.
Based on the employer's submissions, the Board found that the employer was required to deduct EI and CPP from the 2021 retroactive payments, and that no double deduction occurred for 2013.
The Board noted the grievor could seek special tax treatment from the CRA for the retroactive lump-sum payment.
The matter was concluded.
