DECISION OF THE BOARD; March 7, 2000
No statement of desire to make representations has been filed with the Board within the time fixed by the Board following the taking of the representation vote pursuant to the Board's direction of February 9, 2000.
Having regard to the agreement of the parties, the Board further finds that:
all employees of Touchstone Youth Centre in the City of Toronto, save and except Executive Director, Administrative Manager, Administrative Assistants to the Executive Director, Program Co-ordinator, Community and Employment
Co-ordinator and persons above the rank of Co-ordinator, Development Officer, Therapists exercising managerial functions, and students enrolled pursuant to a co-operative education program or placement,
constitute a unit of employees of the responding party appropriate for collective bargaining.
Clarity Note: It is understood and agreed that “Administrative Assistants to the Executive Director” means any person performing all or any part of the duties currently performed by the person in that classification and that, in order for a person to be classified as an “Administrative Assistant to the Executive Director” it will not be necessary to demonstrate any nexus between the duties performed and the Executive Director.
On the taking of the representation vote directed by the Board, more than fifty per cent of the ballots cast by employees in the bargaining unit were cast in favour of the applicant.
A certificate will issue to the applicant.
The Registrar will destroy the ballots cast in the representation vote taken in this matter following the expiration of 30 days from the date of this decision unless a statement requesting that the ballots should not be destroyed is received by the Board from one of the parties before the expiration of such 30 day period.
Meeting and hearing dates set previously are hereby cancelled.
The responding party is directed to post copies of this decision immediately, adjacent to all copies of the "Notice of Vote and of Hearing" posted previously. These copies must remain posted until the date that had been set for the hearing.
