Description:

The completely updated and expanded Ontario Labour Relations Act: Quick Reference, 2009 Edition walks you through the Ontario Labour Relations Act, by defining the respective roles and duties of the workplace parties; describing the steps involved in the certification of a union; unfair labour practices; collective bargaining procedures; first agreement arbitration; sales of businesses; and how disputes under the agreement are to be resolved.

The 2009 edition contains the full text of the Act for your convenience, as well as Regulations and a helpful index to the full contents of the guide.

New in the 2009 edition:
  • Reference to an interesting case that supports free speech during union organizing between employees.
  • Updated section on the Board's reinstated power to automatically certify trade unions in the face of illegal activity by employers.
  • Explanation of the deference the Ontario Board pays to established bargaining units (as distinct from the Canada Board's practice of consolidation).
  • Review of the hurdles employees have to surmount to successfully terminate bargaining rights.
  • Highlighting a debate between the Courts and the OLRB in respect of the Board's preference for strict application of its rules in the context of filing timelines in certification matters.
  • Discussion of what appears to be the stand-pat approach of the current government to Ontario's labour laws.
