B.C. Federation of Labour welcomes appointment of Jacquie de Aguayo as permanent chair
In late August, the NDP government unobtrusively selected a
previous association official as the acting seat of the B.C. Work Relations
Board and Employment Standards Tribunal.
Today, Labor Minister Harry Bains reported that Jacquie de
Aguayo is currently the lasting seat of the two bodies.
De Aguayo is a legal advisor, previous aide
secretary-business chief of the Hospital Employees' Union, and previous
organizer of portrayal with the Public Service Alliance of Canada.
She joined the LRB in 2014 and turns into its first female
seat.
"The legislature looked for another vision and heading
for the board and is certain that the new seat will help understand the
objective of renewing the board's work," Bains said in a news discharge.
B.C. Organization of Labor president Irene Lanzinger has
respected the arrangement, saying it will "help reestablish reasonableness
at the LRB and adjust in working environments which will profit association
individuals and managers alike".
The Labor Relations Board controls the Labor Relations Code.
This implies it manages debate amongst associations and businesses and hears
dissensions by association individuals who feel that their work association has
spoken to them in a self-assertive or biased way or acted in lacking honesty.
The Employment Standards Tribunal hears interests of choices
including dissensions from nonunionized specialists who feel that their manager
has not clung to the Employment Standards Act.
