DECISION OF THE BOARD; June 22, 2001
1This is an application under section 69 and 1(4) of the Labour Relations Act, 1995.
2Pursuant to an agreement of the parties and the Board's decision of May 4, 2001, a representation vote was held on May 4, 2001.
3No 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 4, 2001.
4Having regard to the agreement of the parties, the Board further finds that:
all employees of Algoma District Services Administration Board, save and except supervisors, persons above the rank of supervisor, Trainer, Human Resources Co-ordinator and Confidential Secretaries,
constitute a unit of employees of the responding party appropriate for collective bargaining.
5On 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 Canadian Union of Public Employees.
6I declare that the Canadian Union of Public Employees is the bargaining agent for the bargaining unit. The bargaining rights held by the other trade unions are terminated.
7The 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.
8Meeting and hearing dates set previously are hereby cancelled.
9The 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.
