1849-01-R Stuart Derbyshire & Group of Employees, Applicant v. United Steelworkers of America, Responding Party.
BEFORE: Laura Trachuk, Vice-Chair.
DECISION OF THE BOARD; October 4, 2001
This purports to be an application for termination of bargaining rights. However, it is deficient in a number of respects. The applicant has not included his full address or that of the employer. He has not indicated what city the workplace is in. He has also not indicated in the certificate of delivery what time the documents were faxed to the responding party or employer. However, the most significant omission is the lack of evidence of employees who have expressed a wish not to be represented by the responding party. The applicant has included a photocopy of what purports to be a petition. However, that is not sufficient for the purposes of section 63(4) of the Labour Relations Act, 1995. The Board requires the original document to satisfy itself that the employees listed have expressed a wish not to be represented by the responding party.
This application cannot be processed in its present form and in view of the lack of the evidence required by section 63(4) is being dismissed.
“Laura Trachuk”
for the Board
