Teachers seek fact finder Following the rejection of a tentative settlement by the Perth County Board of Education, its elementary school teachers are seeking a fact finder in an attempt to reach an agreement. The board issued a press release last week announcing it had not ratified the tentative settlement followed a committee -of -the• whole session at the board's Aug. 21 meeting. "The tentative settlement would have cost considerably in excess of five per cent total compensation and the board could not accept this," the press release said. it was issued by superintendent Dick Coburn in the absence of director Paul Sherratt and acting director Adam Stecher. The ratification was turned down by a 10 to 4 recorded vote. Ron Marion of St. Marys. a negotiator far teacher groups said he had met with the two teacher groups involved - the Federated Women Teachers' Association of Ontario and the Ontario Public School Teachers Federa• tion. Mr. Marion said the reaction seemed to reflect concern about the board's action. He said the board superintendent in charge of negotiations "made a commitment at the bargaining table" - a commitment. Mr. Marion said, that was made in consultation with the director and trustee Barbara Herman, chairman of the board's negotiating committee, These parties had agreed to "promoting acceptance" of the agreement, said Mr. Mahon. "It seems they did not do this." he added. Opening duty The teachers contend they are asking for a 4 5 pet cent increase on the salary grid. The grid currently ranges from 314,866 to 341,805. The average salary is 330,818. However. the board maintains that in total, when category changes are included. the salary package increase to the board is 7.59 per cent. Mr. Marion said the average teacher settlement for 1984-85 in Ontario has been 4.3 pet cent. What the local teachers decided to do was ask for a 4.5 pet cent increase "in five per cent Ontario.' he said. He added the teacher groups don't include category changes in their costing and that 70 pet cent of Perth teachers are at the maximum salary on the grid. Mr. Marion said the teachers feel the board is "looking at negotiations in a light manner". Teachers," he said. "are con- cerned and alarmed." "The position of elementary teachers has been one of a co-operative attitude," he added. Once a fact finder is appointed by the Education Relations Cbmiriission (ERC), that person has 30 days to prepare a report. Hie ERC is an independent body set up to promote harmonious relations between teachers and school boards. makes recommendations to both parties. The recommendations are not binding. Once the report is finalized. both parties receive copies and have 15 days to make comments. The fact finder's report is not made public until after the 15 days Mr. Marion said the teachers arc also discussing the- possibility of bringing in a mediator. The mediator sits down with one or both parties and has a diplomatic role in negotiations. The Perth negotiator said once the fact finder's report has been dealt with. other alternatives could be considered Strike action or the appointment of an arbitrator are two of those attcntatives. An arbitrator's role is similar to that of a fact finder but recommendations are binding to both the board and teachers Mr. Marion said strike action 's^ t a Possibility until Novembe- and teach rs }ill be in school Sept. 4 In the hoard's recorded vote trustees voting in favor of ratifying the agreement were chairman Howard Shantz Bert .John ston, Ron Richards, and Barbara Osborne Those voting against were David Ham mond.
