The applicant trade union referred a construction industry grievance to the Board, alleging the respondent employer violated the provincial collective agreement.
The respondent denied being bound by the agreement, arguing it did not hold relevant bargaining rights.
The Board found that the respondent was a member of the Sarnia Construction Association and was therefore bound by the collective agreements entered into by the association, including the provincial collective agreement.
The matter was directed to be relisted for hearing on the remaining issues.
