A group of employees filed a grievance alleging that the employer violated the collective agreement and the Human Rights Code during the divestment of services provided by the Ontario Realty Corporation.
The employer and the union had previously entered into Minutes of Settlement resolving all outstanding matters flowing from the outsourcing.
The Grievance Settlement Board dismissed the grievance, finding that the Minutes of Settlement confirmed the employer had met its responsibilities under the reasonable efforts provision of the collective agreement and were binding on the employer, the union, and the employees.
