APPEARANCES
FOR THE CORPORATION DIANE BIGGS, KATHERINE IVAN AND KATHERINE LEE
FOR THE UNION MARY DONNELLY, KIRK MIDDLETON AND BOB IRWIN
AWARD
Pursuant to Article 9.32(5) of the collective agreement, I conducted hearings at the City of Toronto, Ontario, on June 16 and 17, 1994, in order to hear and determine a series of grievances under the regular arbitration procedure.
At the conclusion of the argument on each grievance, I delivered oral reasons, giving a brief resume as required by Article 9.32(5)(r) of the collective agreement. I now hereby confirm my conclusions.
In the Matter of the Grievances of the Scarborough Local - No. 602-92-02494 and 602-92-02495
These are two grievances by the Scarborough Local alleging that the Corporation violated Article 48.06(c) of the collective agreement on December 20, 1993, by directing that certain letter carriers report one-half hour earlier than their normal start time.
- 11 -
The evidence before me indicates that in both the east and the west area, 48 hours advance notice was given of this change under Article 14.10(a) of the collective agreement on the basis that it amounted to a change in the schedule for the employees. The evidence establishes that in the east area there was local consultation but not in the west area.
I am satisfied that this is a case that falls within Article 14.10(a) of the collective agreement and I would dismiss both grievances save that I emphasize that in the future meaningful local consultation must be held, otherwise a monetary award of damages may well be appropriate.
DATED AT TORONTO this 21, day of June, 1994.
P. JOHN BRUNNER, ARBITRATOR
