HEARING

June 4, 2010.

Decision

1Kim Moore, Mark Denomme and Joanne Holland are Youth Services Officers with the Ministry of Child and Youth Services. In June of 2004, each filed a grievance stating, “I grieve that the Employer has not properly compensated me on my classified status retroactive to July 31, 2003.

2Each of the grievors were involved in a Rollover from unclassified to classified status that took place in the Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services. According to the agreement between the parties certain unclassified employees were to have their status altered to classified as of July 31, 2003. The Rollovers did not take place until April of 2004.

3These grievances were filed when the grievors were Correctional Officers working in the Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services. For that reason, the parties agreed to send this matter to the “Transition Table” for disposition. As is the case with other “Transition” matters, this decision has no precedential value.

4At the hearing I was provided with all of the facts and various documents including payroll records.

5After considering the facts and submissions I am of the view that there has been no violation of the Collective Agreement and therefore the grievances are dismissed.
