Bad faith bargaining complaint dismissed; expired collective agreement terms supersede pre-existing service agreements for dependent contractors.

The union filed an unfair labour practice complaint alleging the employers bargained in bad faith by insisting on terms regarding insurance and brokerage fees that were worse than those in the pre-existing service agreements.

The Board held that once the parties bargained a collective agreement (or had one imposed by arbitration), the service agreement terms on those subjects were superseded.

Following the expiry of the statutory freeze, the employers were entitled to alter those terms.

The bad faith bargaining complaint was dismissed.
