The Goderich Signal-Star, 1986-09-10, Page 5News --. New m del for teachers negotiations act described s "no contract, no work" By Shelley McPhee Hoist Clinton - Efficiency, time and cost cut- ting measures are the key elements of a report that calls for revisions to Bill 100, the School Boards and Teachers Collective Negotiations Act. At its September meeting, the Huron County Board of Education supported the new model of negotiations as prepared by the Ontario School Trustees Council (OSTC) review committee. John Elliott, of the Huron board worked on this committee. He said that the new model of recommendations has been sup- ported by school boards, teachers federa- tions and other groups across the province. He said, "all groups appear to be 100 per cent receptive to this idea at the commit- tee level." Specifically, the new model sets out seven main points: 1. Notice to bargain must be delivered by January 15. 2. Negotiations commence and teachers must deliver their initial brief on or before February 15. 3. A mediator will be appointed by April 30 if there is no settlement. 4. By August 15 the school board must deliver to the teachers, on or before this date, a final offer for consideration by the teachers. 5. The teachers must vote on the school board's final offer no later than the day prior to the first day of school. 6. If no settlement is reached or the teachers do not accept the school board's offer, the schools will not open and a full withdrawal of services will commence as of the first day of school. 7. The full withdrawal of services will con- tinue until either a settlement is reached or jeopardy is publicly declared by the Education Relations Commission and the government acts to terminate the withdrawal of services. Mr. Elliott told Huron board members, "There's a tremendous amount of pressure on both sides to bargain in good faith and find a settlement so the school year can get underway by the first of September." The report presented to the board members further stated, "It was felt that "the current process of negotiations allows both parties to drift through the process with little pressure being exerted. The recommended process will put extreme pressure on bgth parties to reach an agree- ment. Put simply, the new model can be described as 'no contract, no work'." It further read, "The model makes the first day of school a very important timeline. This should encourage boards and teachers to reach a negotiated settle- ment prior to the final offer vote. In addi- tion, it will put a great deal of pressure on the board to ensure that the final offer is reasonable." While the revisions to Bill 100 have been' explored and approved at the local school board levels, Mr. Elliott noted that the On- tario government has not yet begun to review the legislation that has been cur- rently in force for about 10 years. While the government has accepted the need for some revision, Mr. Elliott said, "At the government level a committee hasn't even been struck yet to deal with it, but when it does, the position has been prepared."
