The Ontario Labour Relations Board (the "Board") was established by section 2 of the Labour Relations Act, 1948 and is continued by subsection 110(1) of the Labour Relations Act, 1995 S.O. 1995, C1, as amended. The Board is an adjudicative agency of the Government of Ontario and its' staff is appointed under the Public Service Act. The Board is an independent, adjudicative tribunal issuing decisions based upon the evidence presented and submissions made to it by the parties, and upon its interpretation and determination of the relevant legislation and jurisprudence. It plays a fundamental role on the labour relations regime in Ontario and encourages harmonious relations between employers, employees and trade unions by dealing with matters before it as expeditiously and as fairly as reasonably possible. The OLRB's mandate is to provide, as an independent tribunal, excellence in administrative justice through the effective resolution of labour and employment disputes. The Ontario Labour Court was to have a short life span, attributable to a number of factors: the prohibitive cost of proceedings; the Judges’ apparent dislike of labour matters, and most importantly, the federal government’s decision to control labour relations matters during World War II. The Ontario Labour Court was replaced by the Ontario Labour Relations Board, pursuant to The Labour Relations Board Act, 1944, which was still subject to the federal Wartime Labour Relations Board. Following the Second World War, the division of powers between the federal and provincial governments was re-established, and labour relations were returned largely to the hands of the provincial legislatures. In 1947, the Ontario Labour Relations Board became independent of the Federal Government. The next year, The Labour Relations Act, 1948 empowered the Lieutenant-Governor in Council to make regulations "in the same form and to the same effect as that.
