Maternity rights upheld in union certification vote case
The Canada Labor Relations Board ruled that women on maternity leave remain employees and may vote for union certification. Two Toronto branch employees on leave were allowed to cast ballots though the employer argued the employment relationship ended during leave. The board upheld a nationwide stance that women may have children and retain their jobs, though the union lost its bid for certification.
