The applicant filed an application alleging discrimination on the basis of sex, claiming her employment was terminated after she advised her manager she was pregnant.
She also filed a Request to Expedite Proceedings due to a history of miscarriages, stress, and severe financial hardship resulting from the termination.
The respondent agreed to work towards expediting the proceeding.
The Tribunal granted the request, finding that the applicant's health issues and financial difficulties constituted urgent circumstances that could affect the fair and just resolution of the application.
