The arbitrator is responsible for conducting the hearing and providing a decision to the PA by uploading their report in the system.

The system will show:

• Award Hearing Scheduled the day of the hearing
• Award Awaiting Decision will not occur until the day after the hearing was scheduled
• Hearing Date & Time under upcoming event all days leading up to and 3 hours after the meeting was scheduled

NOTE: The expectation is that you will provide your report within 14 days. If the decision is not provided within that timeframe it will be considered Award Decision Overdue.

The system is now ready for the arbitrator to provide their decision. You will upload a decision document. You are not able to provide that document until after the hearing is schedule. If for some reason, you held the meeting a few hours earlier the system will not be ready until after the scheduled time.

NOTE: Once the file is uploaded and saved the claim will be moved onto the next status. You are only able to upload 1 document.

As an arbitrator you have decided that another hearing is required to make a decision.

You MUST ensure you DO NOT upload a document first. If you do, the provincial administrator will receive notification that this hearing process is complete and requires their review.

To notify the provincial administrator they need to schedule another hearing:

• Wait until the day after the hearing was scheduled
• Select the Folder

• Select Award Hearing Required

If the decision has not been received within 14 days, the system will consider the Award Decision Overdue.
