Employer-specific unit, not province-wide unit, is the correct bargaining unit for terminating construction industry bargaining rights.
The applicants applied to terminate the bargaining rights of the respondent union for two bargaining units of the intervener employer.
The Board dismissed the application regarding the non-ICI sector as untimely.
For the ICI sector, the union argued the relevant bargaining unit for termination was the province-wide unit under the provincial agreement, meaning the applicants lacked the required 45% support.
The Board held that the correct bargaining unit for termination purposes is the employer-specific unit, not the province-wide unit.
Finding that the applicants had the requisite support within the employer's ICI unit, the Board directed a representation vote.
