Proceedings before the relevant labour relations board can be less formal than many proceedings before the courts, including those related to rules of procedure and evidence. Our labour and employment lawyers are experienced in appearing on behalf of employer-clients before the labour/industrial relations boards on such matters as:
- Union certification
- Remedial (automatic) certification
- Related employer/sale of business applications
- Unfair labour practice complaints
- Duty of fair representation
- Construction industry grievances
- Construction industry jurisdictional disputes
- Unlawful strike applications
- Occupational health and safety
Due to the ongoing relationships that may exist between the parties, we take great care to help our clients preserve positive relations in the future. This may include pursuing an amicable settlement of the relevant dispute.
