Board determines employee status of ten municipal workers, excluding only one for confidential labour relations capacity.
The applicant union sought certification for a bargaining unit of municipal inside workers.
The responding party employer disputed the employee status of ten individuals, arguing they exercised managerial functions or were employed in a confidential capacity in matters relating to labour relations under section 1(3) of the Labour Relations Act.
The Board found that only the Records Management Coordinator was excluded due to her regular involvement with confidential labour relations information.
The remaining nine individuals, including planners, inspectors, and secretarial staff, were found to be employees within the meaning of the Act, as their access to confidential information or exercise of managerial authority was irregular or insufficient to warrant exclusion.
