Innis Christie Collection

The Grievor was given a three day suspension (two waived, one served) for inappropriate behaviour and comments to both a co-worker and a supervisor.

As remedy the Union wanted the Employer to pay damages for what was lost due to the suspension and removal of all related documents from the Grievor's personal file.

The Grievor was dismissed for allegedly exposing himself and for not cooperating with the Employer's request for medical consultations. The Grievor denied the event occurred. The Union states that the dismissal was without just or sufficient cause and requests that the Grievor be fully reinstated and compensated for all lost earnings and benefits, and that all material relating to the matter be removed from his personnel file.

The Grievor was suspended and then terminated for culminating incidents of performance failures. The Union requests the Grievor be reinstated with full seniority and compensated for all lost pay and benefits.

The grievance succeeds in part. Discipline was appropriate to the situation, but termination was considered excessive in view of the Grievor's seniority and previous work record. The Grievor is reinstated, but without back pay due to the serious nature of the misconduct.

The Union argues that the Collective Agreement stipulates circumstances under which an employee's disciplinary record becomes clean in Article 24 J, and that this is such a case, resulting in the Employer's inability …

The Grievor was Part-time Assistant in the Post Office at Berwick, Nova Scotia. The grievance alleges that he was suspended without cause. The Union claims that the discipline is unjustified, discriminatory, and not in accordance with notice requirements and time limits in the Collective Agreement. Complaints of harassment were made against the Grievor which were passed on to the Human Rights Officer.

The Union's position is that no …

Innis Christie Collection

This is the determination of an Arbitration Committee established to hear and determine whether or not the grounds for the President's recommendation for the dismissal of Lucinda Vandervort, a tenured Associate Professor, are established and, if established, whether or not they constitute good and sufficient cause for dismissal. The Committee has already issued an interim decision that, even if established, the grounds for the President's recommendation for dismissal do not constitute good and sufficient cause for dismissal and Professor Vandervort has been fully reinstated pending this determination. We advised the parties of our conclusion to that effect after the University …
