The attempt at unionizing the Thompson store in Manitoba took a turn for the worse, as the labor board has agreed to hear WM's complaint that too many employees were excluded from voting in the election.
The votes from the latest Thompson vote won't be counted until the labour board hearing concludes on Aug. 6.Wal-Mart spokesman Kevin Groh said the company is happy with the board's position.
"We're pleased the board determined it's worth hearing the merits of our position," he said yesterday from Toronto. "The union's proposed bargaining unit fails to include too many of our associates to be valid."
