DECISION OF THE BOARD; November 23, 2001
1The application in Board File No. 2196-01-U is made under section 100 of the Labour Relations Act, 1995, R.S.O. 1995, c.1, as amended (the “Act”). It is set to be heard on December 17 and 18, 2001.
2The application in Board File No. 2346-01-OH is made under section 50 of the Occupational Health and Safety Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. O.1, as amended (the “OHSA”).
3The applicant in the section 50 matter has requested that it be heard with the application set to be heard on December 17 and 18, 2001, presumably on the basis that there are overlapping issues of fact and law.
4Having reviewed the materials filed to date in both applications, it is appropriate to hear these matters together.
5Both applications will be heard at the Boardroom, 2nd Floor, 505 University Avenue, Toronto, on December 17 and 18, 2001, beginning at 9:30 a.m.
6The respondents in Board File No. 2346-01-OH are to file their responses in accordance with the Board’s Rules of Procedure.
