Canada Labour Code: Part 1
9:30 AM - 4:00 PM PST Maritime Labour Centre 111 Victoria Drive Vancouver, BC V5L 4C4
BC based workers and their unions in federally regulated industries and workplaces (i.e. telecommunications, interprovincial transportation, postal and courier service, grain elevators, etc.) are covered by the Canada Labour Code. This course is designed to provide an understanding of key aspects of the code and its application to the unions and employers covered by federal labour law. In this course we will focus on Part I of the Code, dealing with labour relations. The most important sections will be reviewed, including those dealing with certification, unfair labour practices, and the duty to bargain in good faith, along with interpretations and key rulings that illustrate the application of the Code.
