The employer filed an application for review under section 68 of the Employment Standards Act.

The matter was scheduled for a hearing, but the employer failed to attend.

After waiting more than the usual half-hour, the Board dismissed the application.

The applicant requested an adjournment of the scheduled hearing.

The responding employees did not attend the hearing, while counsel for the Ministry of Labour was present.

The adjudicator granted the adjournment request for the reasons set out in the applicant's correspondence, and directed the registrar to set a new hearing date.
