to appeal under section 146.1
Dear Mr. McNamara:
This decision letter is in response to your appeal filed on October 25, 2002 under section 146.1 of the Canada Labour Code.
According to the information that you provided regarding Fire Commission visits, an investigation was conducted by a Health and Safety Officer. As a result, no direction was issued under section 145 of the Code and no decision was rendered under subsection 129(7) of the Code. Therefore, I determine that I do not have jurisdiction under the Code to hear an appeal in this matter.
In this regard, I refer you to the Federal Court decision, dated June 1st, 2006 between Pamela Sachs, Canadian Union of Public Employees, Airline Division, Air Canada Component, Occupational Health and Safety Committee of Local 4004 (Toronto) and Air Canada, Douglas Malanka, Jacques Servant a copy of which I have included for your perusal. In this decision the Court ruled that the Appeals Officer has no jurisdiction to hear complaints made under subsection 127.1 of the Code (Internal Complaint Resolution Process).
Yours truly,
Katia Néron
Appeals Officer
