The applicant filed a complaint alleging the union breached its duty of fair representation under section 74 of the Labour Relations Act by failing to advance her grievances to arbitration.
The grievances concerned unpaid overtime, missed breaks, and workplace harassment.
The union investigated the claims, obtained multiple legal opinions, and concluded there was insufficient evidence to succeed at arbitration.
The Board found the union's conduct was not arbitrary, discriminatory, or in bad faith, noting it acted responsibly by thoroughly investigating and relying on counsel's advice.
The application was dismissed.
