The Labour Relations Board (Nova Scotia) wishes to announce two matters of general policy following its study of its guidelines for hospital bargaining units of October 29, 1973.

  1. The Board has considered the guidelines for dealing with Hospital Bargaining Units issued by it on October 29, 1973, and has decided not to alter them.
  2. The Board, in determining who are regular part-time employees to be included in a hospital bargaining unit, shall have regard to the special skills required, the shift requirements, the regularity of shifts worked and the hours worked during a significant test period. If the hours worked average two shifts or more per week during the test period, the Board will normally include such employees in the unit.
