2010 PSLRB 67
Before: Michele A. Pineau
Decision Rendered: May 19, 2010
Original Language: French
An application for judicial review before the Federal Court has been allowed (2011 FC 527) (Court file: T-958-10). An appeal before the Federal Court of Appeal has been withdrawn (Court file: A-217-11).

Subject terms:

Grievance – Rejection on probation – Jurisdiction of adjudicator – Sham – Employment-related reasons

The grievor was a correctional officer and was on probation – the employer dismissed her because it considered her performance unsatisfactory following a number of incidents – the adjudicator found that the employer was not required to provide just or sufficient cause – for a rejection on probation, it was sufficient that the employer’s reasons were employment related – the grievor failed to establish that the termination was a sham.

Grievance dismissed.
