3967-99-R U.F.C.W. Local 333, Applicant v. I.D.M.D. Manufacturing Inc., Responding Party.
BEFORE: Patrick Kelly, Vice‑Chair, and Board Members J. A. Ronson and D. A. Patterson
DECISION OF THE BOARD; April 26, 2000
1The Board is in receipt of correspondence from the solicitors for both parties in respect of issues related to the voters’ list and the timing of the polls, following the decision dated April 5, 2000 of the Board (differently constituted) directing the representation vote. These issues do no appear to be any longer in dispute.
2On the taking of the representation vote directed by the Board, not more than fifty per cent of the ballots cast by employees in the bargaining unit were cast in favour of the applicant.
3The application is therefore dismissed.
4The Board will not consider another application for certification by the applicant as the bargaining agent of the employees in the bargaining unit until one year elapses from the date of this decision.
5The 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.
6Meeting and hearing dates set previously are hereby cancelled.
7The 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.
“Patrick Kelly”
for the Board
