The Ironworkers filed a jurisdictional complaint against Comstock Canada and the Millwrights regarding the assignment of work related to material handling systems.
Prior to the consultation, the Ironworkers and the employer settled, but the Millwrights did not.
The Board ruled that the consultation would proceed because a jurisdictional dispute between the two unions still existed.
The Board determined that the work in dispute included the entire chain of work, from dismantling to installation.
Ultimately, the Board directed that the work be assigned to a composite crew consisting of equal numbers of Ironworkers and Millwrights, performing all functions interchangeably, and made the order binding on future jobs in Board Area #1.
