The applicant union referred a grievance to the Board under section 133 of the Labour Relations Act, alleging the responding employer failed to remit benefit contributions and union dues as required by the collective agreement.
The responding employer failed to file a response or notice of intent to defend.
Pursuant to the Board's Rules of Procedure, the Board deemed the employer to have accepted all facts stated in the application.
The Board declared that the employer was bound by the collective agreement and had violated it by failing to make the required remittances.
The issue of damages was deferred to a scheduled oral hearing.
