Request for reconsideration dismissed as the Board had fully addressed the union's arguments in its original decision.
The applicant union requested reconsideration of a Board decision which found that the employer, John Hayman & Sons Company, Limited, was not bound to the current provincial agreement.
The union argued the Board failed to consider its arguments regarding abandonment of bargaining rights and voluntary recognition.
The Board declined to reconsider, noting that it had fully addressed the union's arguments in its original decision.
The Board reiterated that because the union already held bargaining rights under a predecessor agreement, the subsequent agreement did not constitute voluntary recognition, and thus the employer was not captured by the 'basket' provision of the certificate of accreditation.
