Police Commission Denies Officer’s Grievance Regarding Compensation

By Michael Dinan | March 7, 2022

Town officials during a special meeting last month voted unanimously to deny a grievance brought forward by a police officer regarding compensation. 

Under the contract between the police union and town, “each permanent employee of the department who is injured or disabled in the performance of his or her duties shall be entitled to injury leave with pay less workers’ compensation, from the date of the injury until such time as he or she is able to return to work,” according to a provision cited during a Feb. 23 grievance hearing before the New Canaan Police Commission. According to  John Parlon, a labor specialist for the police union, an injury sustained by Officer David Rivera “has never been disputed.”

“We agree collectively that David was out injured. So what happens when you are out injured, according to the Collective Bargaining Agreement? The employer is responsible to make up the difference between the workmen’s comp insurance and his base pay.
