0448-01-R Allied Construction Employees Local 1030, United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America, Applicant v. Georgian Group Inc., Responding Party.
BEFORE: David A. McKee, Vice‑Chair.
DECISION OF THE BOARD; June 1, 2001
No statement of desire to make representations has been filed with the Board within the time fixed under Rule 62 of the Board's Rules of Procedure following the taking of the representation vote pursuant to the Board's direction of May 9, 2001.
In its decision of May 9, 2001, the Board found the following bargaining unit to be appropriate for collective bargaining:
all carpenters, carpenters’ apprentices and construction labourers in the employ of Georgian Group Inc. in all sectors of the construction industry in the Regional Municipality of Durham (except for the Towns of Ajax and Pickering), the geographic Township of Cavan in the County of Peterborough and the geographic Township of Manvers in the County of Victoria, excluding the industrial, commercial and institutional sector, save and except non-working foremen and persons above the rank of non-working foreman.
In particular, the Board notes that the responding party has not responded to the direction in paragraph 9 of the Board’s decision of May 9, 2001. The applicant has responded stating that it is unaware of any collective agreement binding on any employees in the bargaining unit. Since the responding party has failed to respond to the Board’s direction, the submission in paragraph 10 of the response will be given no weight.
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.
The responding party is directed to post copies of this decision immediately, adjacent to the "Notice of Vote and of Meeting" posted previously. These copies must remain posted for a period of 30 days.
“David A. McKee”
for the Board
