Old Business

 

1)      Temp Employee Issues

Mgmt – requested that J. Kelly resend the names that are still outstanding                        in Zone 7 – our apologies as the list has been misplaced and have

              been unable to provide the documents .

                   

     

2)  WSIB Training Sessions for CPC/ CUPW representatives

Mgmt – have been advised that Lori Caruso has been in touch with

                                    Dean Roosevelt to arrange a joint session for Zone 6.

                     Union – request that Zone 7 also conduct a refresher course

                     Mgmt – will schedule

 

    3)  Appendix 16 – Lieu days

Mgmt – will supply to the Union the results of those employees submitting                        leave forms for lieu days, based on the available cap by stn

                                                                                   

   

       4) RSMC Contacts at CPC

                         Union – the Union raised several questions to John Jeffery, most                                                              concerned the process for the route selections where one                                                             individual holds multi routes, also questioned the process for                                         those routes utilizing sortation only staff, how will this be                                                    considered and what options will the individuals have, further                                         the value of the routes is a concern to most contractors, seems                                          to be difference in actual time worked vs scheduled time- again                                                  who is going to be the contacts for these individuals come Jan.04

                         Mgmt – Any issues relating to the established hours of routes as received                                                 by the contractors are being addressed with the transition                                                      team. With respect to multi contract holders, once they have                                                  selected the subs on the other routes will be given an offer                                                    provided they were the regular delivering employee at the                                              signing of the tentative agreement. Those not assigned to an                                              established route will be placed on a priority list.

                                      To obtain a position they will be required to meet the conditions                                                 of the new collective agreement. If no positions available then no                                          offer will be made.

      

         5)   Walk 118 – West Beaver Creek

Mgmt   -  On going,  have not been able to meet with D. Racioppa.

Union – we have never received the new 075 for this stn, no involvement                          in the process .

 Mgmt – this action was a result of the over assessment of routes and was                         in compliance with Appendix V. Recognise that the 075 should                     be provided. It will be discussed with Delivery Services

                                                             

 

6)      Pay Issues

Union – had asked that the agreement for resolving pay issues be typed

              into last months minutes , that did not occur.

Mgmt – agree, unfortunately a copy was not available at the time the                    minutes were completed. Ask that the Union fax a copy to                          J. Connery and it will be included in the minutes of this meeting

              Process to resolve pay issues

 

Once an employee has realized that a problem exists with his/her pay they                       will provide a copy to the station superintendent who will contact                payroll to correct the problem.

                         The superintendent must reply by the Friday following payday with an                           answer as well as return the paystub indicating when the correction can be                                     received.

                         In the event that the superintendent is unable to comply with the above                           instructions, the employee will contact the Union office who in turn will                           contact the Zone Manager for resolution.

                         The Zone Manager is to respond  to the Union no later than the                                                 Wednesday following payday with the results.

                         Again if the Zone Manager is unable to comply/resolve the Union will                             escalate the matter to the Director.

   

7)      Parcel Model – Data Capture

 Union – the working committee created a data capture form which                      contains all the delivery info, FSA, LDU, Street address etc, for                           purposes of data collection for the use to structure at a later date.

               The items that are now being delivered at the stns should be                   captured as these will default to the model.

 Mgmt – not in a position to comment, however will follow up with                       R. Gualtieri.                                      

  

     

 

 

 

 

 

8)      Additional Positions Group 1 – West Hill

 Mgmt  - nothing has changed since our last discussion, in fact in                                       speaking with the individuals involved it was indicated that                           no delay in the opening of the wicket has occurred. Volumes                      of  items will always dictate the opening.

 Union – suggest that a regular time be established based on the                                        normal departure time and the time required for the L.C’s to                        obtain their items so they can depart on time.

  Mgmt – unable to determine such a schedule.

 

       9)  Unionville Walk 12

                        Mgmt – a package has been received at the Unionville depot. It was                                            agreed to wait until Nov 17, 03 to start the as the ee is on                                                               annual leave.

                        Union –  feel that there is no need to do a pre- count, not part of Art 50.

 Mgmt – under Art 50 it must be demonstrated that the workload          is                                     excessive, the Corporations process to that end, commences                                    with a count to assess any measurable changes in volume, POC                                      etc. If this demonstrates a variance to the route at the time                                   it was structure so then a complete evaluation is done.

 

10)  Transfer Forms ( New Contract)

 Mgmt – the forms and process are still at the national transition team level

               we have no new updates at this time  It is still our intention to                  have Julie Best attend the December meeting.

 

11)  Monthly Bid Postings ( New Contract)

Mgmt – again no updates as to the process. Such as who will be                                     responsible. Will advise the Union at first opportunity.

 

New Business

 

 

1)      Station Restructures / Malvern Restructure

  Union – presented a draft version of a schedule for the conversion of                   PT  MSC’s to FT  MLC’s.  Concern with the fact based on the                     schedule you are behind already. Also if the intent is to follow                        what is currently taking place in Malvern we will have no choice             but to raise our objections and apply art 47.10 and 47.12.

                The union raised the following objections:

                        the current MSC tours are being adjusted to include a PM.                                delivery  and or sortation duties, thus categorized as                                MLC’s, this is a hybrid position not an MLC. See appendix    

                        13,pg 600 – until the new model is implemented the                               MSCWSS will remain unless agreed to by the Steering                                     Committee

This stn has approx 900 mins in overassement not being            considered nor is the implementation of the DRS / MM values which by the new agreement are to added when a              structure take place.

               Suggest that you consider a Plan b – this stn was originally                     scheduled due to the lack of space. The intent to remove the                        routes associated with M1X, which included 2 L.C., with                                        what has been presented now no additional space will be                                   available as you will need to keep the sortation cases for the                     hybrid tours.

 Mgmt -  have you been presented with the implementation package for                            review in order to apply art 47.10

 Union – not as of yet, we cannot agree to this process. Hoping to raise the                      concern here for resolution .

  Mgmt – will discuss with Delivery Services   

 

 

2)      Depot 11 Issues

Union – raised the following concerns;                                                               *          ee choosing to the flex meal period and then returning                                to the stn for overtime opportunities, it is our position                                    that once they choose not to return for their meal then                            they have no reason to return to the station until their                                     next shift, unless the route is portal to portal.

                                    *          Problems with the temperature in the stn keep to hot this is                                                        an ongoing issue

·                    a  new building has been added to walk 54, yet the updates have not been submitted via the 452 report.

·                    Some of the ee’s were dropped off the 1st aid training schedule

·                    Staff consistently starting early at Depot 11

                       

                        Mgmt -  will follow-up re; the right to overtime      

                                      with respect to the heat, this is an employee issue. Constantly                                         adjusting the thermostat. Locks were installed and these were                                            broken.

Union – disagree that the employees are setting the temperature .

                        Mgmt -   will make some enquires to see what is occurring.

   will have the Supt complete the 452 report and submit                                                                                               

 

3)      The parties discussed and agreed  to the following :

Grievance hearings will be scheduled for 07:00 hrs with Zone 6,

Article 54 Issues will be discussed at 07:00 hrs for Zone 5

 Zone 5 grievances will be discussed following the completion of the                 Art. 54 meeting, at which time Zone 6 will meet with the 54 committee.

 Zone 7 grievances will be heard as required between Zone 5 and 6.
