Applicant's request to withdraw human rights application against union granted without conditions despite employer's opposition.
The applicant requested to withdraw his human rights application against his union and its officials, which alleged failure to properly represent him regarding workplace discrimination.
The intervenor employer opposed the withdrawal, arguing it was an abuse of process because the applicant was pursuing a separate application against the employer on overlapping facts.
The Tribunal granted the request to withdraw without conditions, finding no abuse of process and noting that the employer's resources were not significantly engaged by the withdrawal.
Contracting out the operation of a provincial park to private individuals constituted a transfer of an undertaking.
The Ontario Public Service Employees Union applied for a declaration that the Ministry of Natural Resources' contract with two individuals to operate Fitzroy Provincial Park constituted a transfer of an undertaking under the Successor Rights (Crown Transfers) Act.
The Board found that the contractors were operating the park for their own account, assuming financial risks, and using the physical assets and similar jobs as formerly performed by Crown employees.
The Board concluded that the transaction was analogous to a lease or franchise and declared it a transfer of an undertaking from the Crown to an employer.
