0475-01-R Universal Workers Union, Labourers’ International Union of North America Local 183, Applicant v. IKEA Canada Limited Partnership, Responding Party.
BEFORE: Laura Trachuk, Vice‑Chair, and Board Members J. A. Rundle and R. R. Montague
DECISION OF THE BOARD; June 20, 2001
The style of cause is hereby amended to reflect the correct name of the responding party: "IKEA Canada Limited Partnership".
There are no longer any issues in dispute between the parties.
On 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.
The application is therefore dismissed.
The Board directs the parties’ and the employees’ attention to section 10(3) of the Act. Should an application for certification be filed within one year of the date of this decision, the effect, if any, of this decision and section 10(3) of the Act on that subsequent application may be determined, if necessary, at that time.
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.
“Laura Trachuk”
for the Board
