Labor Relations Council of Carpenters

Question: Discuss about theLabor Relations for Council of Carpenters. Answer: Introduction: It was requested specifically by the B.C. Provincial Council of Carpenters that a finding is made by the Board under section 37 that Yukon Properties Private Limited, Rabco Development Ltd. and Baywood Enterprises Ltd. are for the purposes of the Labor Code, one employer. The court opined in this case that there was a certain degree of functional integration between Baywood and Yukon and the two companies activities are related and thus it is related, or associated activity which the Board opined was being carried out by the two companies within the meaning of Section 37. Further, the court opined that Yukon and Baywood were carrying out their functions under common control as mentioned under section 37. Thus in the light of these circumstances the court opined that both Yukon and Baywood comprised of the same employer for the codes purposes (Baywood Enterprises Ltd., 1975). According to me this decision of the code for declaring that Yukon and Baywood had common employer was correct since the facts of the case concluded that the activities of the company were associated or related and under common control thus complying with the requirement of the common employer under section 37 (2016). This case would have been likely represented in the Media in the light of the Carpenters being the protagonist of the media coverage and from their side of the issue. The media would have further gone to cover that there had been a decision stating that both Yukon and Baywood had the common employer. However, it would be ideal if such a media coverage is done from both sides of the parties. References (2016).Lrb.bc.ca.
