Inflation Restraint Act voids only the compensation plan, not the entire awarded first collective agreement.
The union alleged the employer violated the Labour Relations Act by refusing to implement a first collective agreement awarded by a board of arbitration.
The employer argued the agreement was a nullity due to the Inflation Restraint Act.
The Board held that while the compensation plan within the agreement was of no effect under the Inflation Restraint Act, the remainder of the collective agreement remained valid and binding.
The Board directed the employer to implement the non-compensation provisions of the agreement.
