Modernize Labour Relations Act to be More Consistent with Occupational Health and Safety (OHS)

Therefore Be It Resolved that Municipalities Newfoundland and Labrador seek from the Department of Environment and Climate Change a review and revision of the provisions of the Labour Relations Act to ensure that:
i) any behaviour by an individual or group, be it union, non-union or employer, which constitutes harassment, bullying, confinement, or intimidation is prohibited during strikes and lockouts; and
ii) recourse be legislatively instituted for such behaviours, which have no place in today’s society.
