The union filed an unfair labour practice complaint alleging that the employer parties bargained in bad faith by failing to recognize a collective agreement that the union claimed was ratified by its members.
The negotiations involved three parties: the union, the taxi brokerage, and an associates committee.
The union had put two separate, incomplete, and somewhat inconsistent employer proposals to a ratification vote.
The Board dismissed the complaint, finding that the proposals were not complete or intended as final offers capable of forming a collective agreement upon ratification, and that the employers had not violated the Act.
