HEARING September 28, 2000.
AWARD
The parties agreed to and participated in a mediation/arbitration procedure in accordance with article 22.16 of the collective agreement to deal with the above-captioned grievances.
The grievor was employed as a head nurse at Brockville Psychiatric Hospital until he went on disability leave on May 6, 1986. Since that time, the grievor has continued to file numerous grievances with the union and these matters are the subject of this hearing.
The union and the employer contend that I have no jurisdiction to hear the grievances because there is no dispute between the parties. This contention is clearly correct given the decision in ATU (Blake) and Toronto Area Transit Authority, GSB # 1276/87 (Shime), dated May 3, 1988.
Accordingly, the above-captioned grievances are dismissed.
Dated at Brockville, Ontario, this 12th day of October, 2000.
