Civil Service Deputy Sheriff I, II & III Classification Grievance UPDATE

As you may be aware, your Union filed two substantially-altered classification grievances; one for the Deputy Sheriff I-II classification (P-20-1594), and one for the Deputy Sheriff III classification (P-21-449).

Members representing Sheriff Deputies and Supervisors presented the union’s case to the employer and Public Service Commission (PSC) in April 2022. The presentation was thorough and rigorous.

Unfortunately, the union did not receive a response from the PSC and as a result, the grievances were moved along and referred to adjudication on October 18, 2022.

We have since met with legal counsel and Sheriff Deputies. We continue to seek adjudication dates for the adjudication hearings and will keep you informed as we move through this process.

Should you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate in reaching out to Dustin Rioux, your Employee Relations Officer (ERO).
