The applicant union filed a displacement application for certification to represent employees at a hospital, currently represented by the intervenor union.
The Board found that the applicant is a trade union and that it appeared to have the requisite 40% membership support.
The Board directed a representation vote.
The intervenor requested that the application be dismissed or the ballot box sealed due to alleged unfair practices and breaches of a court order and union constitution.
The Board dismissed these requests, noting it had rejected similar submissions in previous decisions, and ordered the vote to proceed.
