The applicant filed a complaint alleging that the union breached its duty of fair representation under section 69 of the Labour Relations Act.
The applicant raised four specific incidents, including the union's response to a racist note left in his desk, its handling of a production crew meeting where complaints were made about his work, its representation during a counseling meeting with management, and its pursuit of a written apology from a supervisor.
The Board found that the union acted with due diligence in all instances, taking strong action against workplace harassment and properly handling the applicant's grievances.
The application was dismissed.
