The applicant City requested a hearing regarding a Review Officer's order directing the parties to complete and implement a pay equity plan.
The respondent union moved to dismiss the application for failing to establish a prima facie case.
The Tribunal held that it has the authority to dismiss an application without a hearing on the merits if the written material fails to disclose a case that the Tribunal can remedy.
Finding that the City's application merely expressed general dissatisfaction with the job comparison system without alleging facts that would constitute a violation of the Pay Equity Act, the Tribunal dismissed the application for failure to establish a prima facie case.
