The grievor, a manager at the Guelph Correctional Centre, grieved that his salary was lower than that of a subordinate bargaining unit employee due to wage restraints.
The employer raised a preliminary objection that the Public Service Grievance Board lacked jurisdiction to alter salaries established by the Civil Service Commission or negotiated in a collective agreement.
The Board agreed, finding it had no authority to increase or decrease wages established for the Management Compensation Plan or the bargaining unit.
The grievance was dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.
