77. The associations of employees referred to in paragraph 1 of section 73 may form an employee-associations group to apply for certification to represent the employees to be included in a new bargaining unit if one of those associations is already certified for some of those employees. An employee’s membership in an association of employees that is a member of such a group constitutes membership in the group.
For the purposes of this Act and the Labour Code (chapter C-27), such an employee-associations group is deemed to be an association of employees.
