Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
labour dispute  financing 

Summary:

International Woodworkers of America on strike against an employer's association. Claimant was not employed by company but by a subcontractor. Member of same union but of a local different from company's employees. Not financing as per HILLS.


Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
labour dispute  stoppage of work  premises 

Summary:

Trucker contends premises in 44(1) must be limited to employer's place rather than where actually working. I cannot agree. While not employed by company but by sub-contractor, at least part of employment occurred at struck premises where he regularly delivered logs.


Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
labour dispute  participation  picket lines 

Summary:

Trucker employed by sub-contractor for a company whose employees set up picket lines at one delivery point. Whether claimant would have crossed had his employer decided not to send him there is not known, but he did not voluntarily withdraw his services.


Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
labour dispute  directly interested  non-bargaining group 

Summary:

IWA on strike against company. Claimant is a member of a different local and is employed by a sub-contractor. Whatever advantages IWA gained for its members would presumably be extended to all locals even though claimant's employer is not in group bargaining.
