The applicant union filed an application for certification under the construction industry provisions of the Labour Relations Act, 1995.
The responding party filed a section 8.1 notice asserting the proposed bargaining unit was not appropriate because it did not employ any construction labourers.
Finding that the union had the requisite 40 percent membership support, the Board ordered a representation vote.
Due to the section 8.1 notice and the bargaining unit description dispute, the Board directed that the ballots be segregated and the ballot box sealed pending further order or agreement.
