Union held to settlement agreement on bargaining unit size; decertification petition found voluntary and vote ordered.

The applicant filed an application to terminate the bargaining rights of the respondent union.

The parties had previously signed an Officer's Report agreeing that there was one employee in the bargaining unit on the application date.

At the hearing, the union attempted to resile from this agreement, arguing there were no employees in the unit.

The Board held the union to its agreement, emphasizing the importance of settlement documents.

The Board also found the petition supporting the application to be voluntary, despite the applicant's consultation with a fellow employee and the use of a company bulletin board to announce a meeting.

A representation vote was ordered.

Klaus Willroider v. The International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, 1990 CanLII 5780

OLRBOntario Labour Relations BoardJun 22, 1990

Related employer declaration granted where trucking company transferred contracted-out shunting work to a commonly controlled corporation.

The applicant union sought a declaration under section 1(4) of the Labour Relations Act that Cronkwright Transport Limited and Erie Employee Services Ltd. constituted a single employer.

Cronkwright had previously contracted out shunting work to an independent operator but later transferred the work to Erie, a related corporation under common control.

The Board found that the essential elements of a related employer relationship were present and that the transfer of work to a related entity, rather than an arm's-length contractor, threatened to erode bargaining rights.

The Board exercised its discretion to grant the declaration, binding Erie to the collective agreement.

A dissenting member would have dismissed the application on grounds of delay and the employees' right to free choice.

Employee association granted trade union status and certified as bargaining agent.

The applicant, an employee association, applied for certification to represent employees of the respondent.

The Ontario Labour Relations Board held a hearing to determine whether the applicant was a trade union within the meaning of the Labour Relations Act.

The Board reviewed the steps taken to form the association, including the adoption of a constitution and the election of officers, and concluded that the applicant was a viable organization formed for the purpose of representing employees in labour relations.

Finding that more than 55% of the employees in the bargaining unit were members of the applicant, the Board granted the application and issued a certificate.

United Employees of Standard Industrial Technologies Inc. v. Standard Industrial Technologies Inc., 1990 CanLII 5652

OLRBOntario Labour Relations BoardJan 26, 1990

A collective agreement executed after a termination application cannot retroactively render the application untimely.

The applicant filed an application for a declaration terminating the respondent union's bargaining rights.

The union argued the application was untimely because a collective agreement, executed after the application was filed, had a retroactive duration clause that covered the date of the application.

The Board held that the timeliness of a termination application is determined at the time it is filed.

A collective agreement signed subsequent to the application cannot retroactively render it untimely.

The application was found to be timely and a representation vote was directed.

Robert A. Wallace v. United Food & Commercial Workers International Union, Local 175, 1990 CanLII 5731

Board orders limited production of time cards in termination of bargaining rights application.

In an application for a declaration terminating bargaining rights, the union sought production of various employer documents via a summons duces tecum.

The Board initially denied the broad request as a fishing expedition.

Subsequently, the union narrowed its request.

The Board directed the employer to produce time cards for specific dates to address allegations of management involvement in the petition's circulation, while other document requests were resolved by agreement.
