The applicant, an employers' organization, applied for accreditation as the bargaining agent for employers in the non-destructive testing industry who have a bargaining relationship with the respondent council of trade unions.
The Ontario Labour Relations Board found that the applicant met the statutory requirements to be an employers' organization.
The Board also determined that the requested unit of employers, which included multiple sectors of the construction industry, was appropriate for collective bargaining given the specialized nature of the industry and the existing exemptions from province-wide bargaining.
A Certificate of Accreditation was issued.
