Many misconducts, policy breaches
lead to dismissal of correctional officer
A NEWFOUNDLAND and Labrador penitentiary
had sufficient cause to determine a probationary
employee was unsuitable for his position due to mis-
conduct, an arbitrator has ruled.
The worker was hired in 2013 as a casual correc-
tional officer at Her Majesty's Penitentiary (HMP)
in St. John's. He started with a one-year probation-
ary period. His training covered policies including
the dress code, deportment and safety. In addition,
staff were not allowed to carry their cellphones with
them, as inmates had been known to manipulate
new staff into obtaining their phones.
An evaluation stated that the worker maintained
his uniform and appearance in accordance with
policy, but he had been seen several times not wear-
ing his tie or cap. There were also concerns about his
attitude and judgment, including leaving the prison
for cigarette breaks — which was a safety concern
since staff needed to know who was inside or outside
of the building in case of an emergency.
