Motion to dismiss objections to representation vote granted; union electioneering and language barriers did not invalidate vote.

The applicant union sought certification and won a representation vote.

The respondent employer and objecting employees sought a new vote, alleging that language barriers, defaced Board notices, and union electioneering compromised the vote's validity.

The union brought a motion to dispose of the objections without hearing evidence.

The Ontario Labour Relations Board granted the motion, holding that the alleged conduct, even if true, was not coercive and did not destroy the secrecy of the ballot.

The Board confirmed the vote results and issued a certificate to the union.

Glass, Molders, Pottery, Plastics & Allied Workers International Union (AFL-CIO, CLC) v. Northfield Metal Products Ltd., 1989 CanLII 3051

OLRBOntario Labour Relations BoardDec 19, 1988

Board determines bargaining unit composition and orders disclosure of membership count in certification application.

During a consolidated hearing for union certification and an unfair labour practice complaint, the Ontario Labour Relations Board made several preliminary rulings.

The Board refused to exclude part-time employees and students from the bargaining unit, noting the employer had no history of employing them, despite the plant having only been open for a few months.

The Board also included quality control employees in the unit, finding they shared a community of interest with production employees.

Over the union's objection, the Board ordered the disclosure of the membership card count to ensure all parties understood the case to be met.

Finally, the Board directed the employer to call its evidence first, followed by the objecting employees, and then the union.

International Union, United Automobile, Aerospace & Agricultural Implement Workers of America v. Kuhlman Plastics of Canada Ltd., 1988 CanLII 3607

OLRBOntario Labour Relations BoardNov 30, 1988

Employee who resigned the day after a representation vote was eligible to cast a ballot.

In an application for certification, a representation vote was held.

The respondent employer and objecting employees sought a second vote, arguing that an employee who cast a ballot and resigned the following working day to take another job lacked sufficient interest in the bargaining unit.

The Board held that the employee was eligible to vote because she was employed on both the date the vote was ordered and the date it was taken.

The Board also declined a belated request by the objectors to redefine the bargaining unit to exclude engineering employees, noting the parties had previously agreed to their inclusion.

The union won the vote and a certificate was issued.

National Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers Union of Canada (CAW-Canada) v. Dowty Canada Electronics Limited, 1988 CanLII 3707

OLRBOntario Labour Relations BoardNov 29, 1988

Employer breached duty to bargain in good faith by refusing to negotiate pensions outside joint committee.

The union filed an unfair labour practice complaint alleging the employer violated the duty to bargain in good faith by refusing to negotiate pension issues separately from a joint union committee.

The employer argued the union had irrevocably ceded its right to bargain pensions separately by participating in the joint committee in previous rounds.

The Board held that the union was entitled to unilaterally withdraw from the joint committee with adequate notice.

The employer violated section 15 of the Labour Relations Act by pressing its demand for joint bargaining to impasse and refusing to receive the union's pension proposals.

However, the employer's direct communications with employees regarding its bargaining position were found to be permissible.

Canadian Union of Public Employees, Local 1001 v. University of Windsor, 1988 CanLII 3612

OLRBOntario Labour Relations BoardMay 18, 1988

Board asserts provincial jurisdiction over labour relations for construction work on a federal undertaking.

The applicants applied for certification regarding employees of the respondent working on the rehabilitation of the Welland Canal.

The respondent argued that the work was an integral part of a federal undertaking, placing labour relations under federal jurisdiction.

The Ontario Labour Relations Board applied the Supreme Court of Canada's decision in Construction Montcalm Inc., holding that construction work, even on a federal undertaking, falls within provincial jurisdiction over labour relations.

The Board concluded it had jurisdiction to entertain the applications.

International Union of Operating Engineers, Local 793 v. Peter Kiewit Sons Co. Ltd., 1988 CanLII 3702

OLRBOntario Labour Relations BoardApr 26, 1988

Company violated duty to bargain in good faith by refusing to sign agreed-upon collective agreement.

The complainant union alleged that the respondent company violated the duty to bargain in good faith under section 15 of the Labour Relations Act by refusing to sign a collective agreement after all terms had been accepted.

The company admitted it withheld its signature because it hoped the settlement would avert a strike by two other bargaining units, which did not occur.

The Board found that the company violated section 15 by resiling from the agreed-upon terms and directed the company to execute the agreement.

Syndicat des travailleurs de l'information du Droit v. Le Droit, division de groupe Unimedia Inc., 1988 CanLII 3762

OLRBOntario Labour Relations BoardMar 28, 1988

Union certified without a representation vote after demonstrating membership support exceeding 55%.

The applicant union applied for certification and filed documentary evidence of membership on behalf of more than 55% of the employees in the bargaining unit.

The respondent employer and objecting employees requested that the Board exercise its discretion under section 7(2) of the Labour Relations Act to order a representation vote, citing a close margin of support, employee turnover, past unsuccessful collective bargaining, and potential peer pressure.

The Board declined to order a vote, finding that the union had established the requisite clear majority and that none of the raised concerns warranted departing from the statutory scheme of automatic certification.

A certificate was issued to the applicant.

National Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers Union of Canada (CAW-Canada) v. P. J. Wallbank Manufacturing Co. Limited, 1988 CanLII 3689

OLRBOntario Labour Relations BoardFeb 10, 1988

Board declined to issue specific orders based on general settlement language and terminated the grievance proceedings.

The applicant union referred a grievance to the Ontario Labour Relations Board under section 124 of the Labour Relations Act.

The parties executed Minutes of Settlement in which the respondent acknowledged violating the collective agreement and agreed to pay $1,662.50.

The parties requested the Board to endorse the settlement and issue an order.

Relying on its previous jurisprudence, the Board declined to convert the general language of the settlement into specific orders, noting that parties must expressly agree on the particular declarations or orders sought.

The Board reproduced the settlement and terminated the proceedings.

Labourers' International Union of North America, Local 183 v. Greenleaf Designs Ltd., 1988 CanLII 3622

OLRBOntario Labour Relations BoardApr 30, 1987

Employer breached collective agreement by unreasonably delaying notice of no-rehire status to discharged employee.

The union grieved the employer's refusal to hire a tradesman referred to its Darlington generating station.

The grievor had previously been discharged by the employer for poor performance, but the employer failed to notify him at the time of discharge that he was ineligible for rehire, contrary to its own policy.

The Ontario Labour Relations Board found that the employer's delay in advising the grievor of his no-rehire status was unreasonable and breached the collective agreement.

The Board directed the employer to hire the grievor and pay him two months' compensation.

The International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, Local Union 1788 v. The Electrical Power Systems Construction Association and Ontario Hydro, 1987 CanLII 3251

OLRBOntario Labour Relations BoardApr 30, 1986

Union did not breach duty of fair representation by agreeing to endtail seniority to save jobs.

The complainants, former warehouse employees of Dominion Stores, alleged that their union breached its duty of fair representation (s. 68) and violated the successor rights provisions (s. 63) of the Labour Relations Act when it agreed to a proposal by A & P. A & P had purchased Dominion stores and the warehouse operation, but insisted on integrating the warehouse under the A & P collective agreement, effectively endtailing the Dominion employees' seniority.

The union accepted the proposal without a ratification vote, believing it was the only way to save 250 jobs.

The Board found that the union did not act arbitrarily, discriminatorily, or in bad faith, as its assessment of the situation was reasonable and it faced a difficult decision balancing competing interests.

The Board also exercised its discretion under s. 63(6) to declare that A & P was no longer bound by the Dominion collective agreement due to the intermingling of employees.

The complaints were dismissed.

Meikle v. Retail, Wholesale & Department Store Union Local 414, 1986 CanLII 1576

OLRBOntario Labour Relations BoardMar 14, 1986

Application to terminate union bargaining rights dismissed because employee petition was not demonstrably voluntary.

The applicants, employees of a cleaning company, applied to terminate the bargaining rights of the respondent union.

They submitted a petition signed by a majority of the bargaining unit employees.

The Board found that the majority of the signatures were collected by an employee who was a close friend of the employees' supervisor, and that she collected them during working hours after obtaining permission to leave early.

The Board concluded that the employees might have perceived management involvement or feared their wishes would be communicated to management.

Consequently, the Board held that the petition did not represent the voluntary wishes of the employees and dismissed the application.

One Board member dissented, arguing that a representation vote should have been ordered.
