HEARING CONFERENCE CALL
September 24, October 20 & 28, 2015 December 4, 2015
Decision
1In April of 2011, the parties signed a Memorandum of Agreement for the Med/Arb process within this Ministry. In that agreement it was decided that overtime grievances should be dealt with on a regular basis at every institution. It was the stated expectation that the parties would “move forward together in a timely manner to resolve as many outstanding overtime grievances” as possible at each institution. Monthly meetings were to be scheduled for this purpose. It was hoped that these monthly overtime grievance sessions would resolve most grievances.
2It was also agreed in the Memorandum that Med-Arb sessions would be held to deal only with overtime grievances from time to time. The parties would meet to attempt resolution of the outstanding grievances and the remaining disputes would be put before this Board.
3In May of 2012 the first decision from this process was issued. As agreed by the parties, that decision was without prejudice and without reasons. There have been further sessions and decisions issued. The process has not been altered.
4The parties met on September 24, 2015, October 20, 2015 and October 28, 2015. We also held a conference call on December 4, 2015. Overtime grievances were heard from Central East Correctional Centre, Monteith Correctional Complex, Kenora Jail, TIC, and North Bay Jail. Both parties presented facts, supporting documents and submissions regarding the various disputes. Attached is the list of grievances and the disposition of this Board. Any monies that are owing to individual grievors as set out in the attached are to be paid at the appropriate overtime rate less statutory deductions. I remain seized.
Dated at Toronto, Ontario this 21st day of December 2015.
