Tribunal grants three-month deferral of human rights applications due to applicant's illness.

The applicant requested that his four outstanding applications before the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario be placed in abeyance due to illness.

Although the applicant failed to fully comply with a previous direction to provide an estimate of his recovery time, three of the four respondents agreed to a three-month deferral.

Given the medical documentation provided and the lack of claimed prejudice by the respondents, the Tribunal granted a three-month deferral and set out conditions for re-activating or further extending the deferral.

Human rights application deferred pending conclusion of concurrent union grievance without applicant's requested conditions.

The applicant filed an application alleging discrimination based on disability.

The respondent requested that the Tribunal defer consideration of the application because the allegations were part of an ongoing union grievance.

The applicant consented to the deferral but sought to attach conditions.

The Tribunal deferred the application pending the conclusion of the grievance proceeding but declined to attach the requested conditions, noting that the applicant could request reactivation in accordance with the Tribunal's Rules if her human rights issues were not appropriately dealt with.

HRTO0 cases2012–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioApr 16, 2014

Human rights application dismissed for lack of jurisdiction as workplace bullying was unconnected to protected grounds.

The applicant filed a human rights application alleging discrimination based on the ground of record of offences, claiming she was bullied in the workplace.

The Tribunal issued a Notice of Intent to Dismiss Application because the narrative did not identify any specific acts of discrimination within the meaning of the Code.

The applicant's written submissions failed to identify any acts relating to a protected ground.

The Tribunal dismissed the application, finding it plain and obvious that the claim fell outside its jurisdiction as it involved general unfairness or bullying unconnected to a protected ground.

Applications against the Tribunal dismissed for lack of jurisdiction and adjudicative immunity.

The applicant filed 22 applications against the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario, alleging discrimination and reprisal based on the Tribunal's handling of his previous 58 applications.

The Tribunal issued Notices of Intent to Dismiss, noting the applications appeared to fall outside its jurisdiction.

The Tribunal dismissed the applications, finding it plain and obvious that the applicant failed to identify any specific acts of discrimination or reprisal within the meaning of the Human Rights Code.

Furthermore, the Tribunal held that the impugned procedural decisions were protected by the doctrine of adjudicative immunity.

Franchisor's preliminary request to be removed as a respondent dismissed pending full evidentiary hearing.

The applicant filed a human rights application alleging discrimination based on family and marital status, specifically regarding a policy requiring part-time employees to be available for midnight shifts.

The respondent franchisor, McDonald's Restaurants of Canada Limited, requested to be removed as a respondent, arguing it only provided operational support to the franchisee and did not control day-to-day operations.

The Tribunal dismissed the request, noting that the franchisee had attached the franchisor's employment policies to its response, and the franchisor's liability could not be determined without evidence and argument at a hearing.

Deferral request denied; WSIB determination of injury cause not determinative of human rights accommodation duties.

The respondent requested that the Tribunal defer consideration of the human rights application pending the outcome of the applicant's WSIB appeal regarding whether her injury was work-related.

The Tribunal denied the deferral request, finding that the cause of the applicant's injury had limited relevance to the issues under the Human Rights Code, which requires employers to accommodate disability-related needs regardless of the cause of the disability.

Request to amend human rights application to add family status ground granted despite delay.

The applicant requested to amend his human rights application to add family status as a ground of discrimination and to increase the damages sought by $20,000.

The respondent objected, arguing the applicant knew the material facts when filing and that the delay caused prejudice.

The Tribunal granted the request, finding that the unfairness to the applicant of not being able to challenge the actual reasons for his termination outweighed any prejudice to the respondent.

Miraka v. A.C.D. Wholesale Meats Ltd., 2014 HRTO 363

Jo-Anne Pickel

HRTO0 cases2012–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioMar 13, 2014

Human rights application filed on the one-year anniversary of the last incident is timely.

The respondent requested that the human rights application be dismissed for delay, arguing that because the last incident of alleged discrimination occurred on October 30, 2012, the application should have been filed by October 29, 2013.

The Tribunal applied its previous jurisprudence on the calculation of the one-year limitation period under section 34 of the Human Rights Code, holding that an application filed on the anniversary date of the last incident is timely.

The application, filed on October 30, 2013, was therefore timely, and the respondent's request to dismiss was denied.

Application dismissed for lack of jurisdiction because the respondent telecommunications employer is federally regulated.

The applicant filed an application alleging discrimination in employment against his former employer, a telecommunications service provider.

The Tribunal issued a Notice of Intent to Dismiss on the basis that the employer appeared to be federally-regulated.

Finding that telecommunications undertakings fall within federal jurisdiction under s. 92(10) of the Constitution Act, 1867, the Tribunal concluded it was plain and obvious that the employment relationship was not governed by the provincial Human Rights Code.

The application was dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.

Human rights application alleging age and race discrimination in restaurant employment dismissed for lack of evidence.

The applicant, a 58-year-old dishwasher of Sri Lankan origin, alleged that the respondents discriminated against him based on age, race, colour, place of origin, and ethnic origin during his brief employment.

He claimed he was treated differently, subjected to discriminatory comments, and that his employment was terminated and wages withheld for discriminatory reasons.

The Tribunal found that the differential treatment, such as bag checks and being paid in cash, was due to his status as a new employee, not his race or age.

The Tribunal concluded that the workplace conflict arose from differing work styles and the applicant's angry outburst, rather than discrimination, and dismissed the application.

Request to defer applications until end of probationary period due to fear of reprisal denied.

The applicant requested that the Tribunal defer consideration of his two human rights applications until the end of his probationary period, citing a fear of reprisal following the settlement of his union grievance.

The Tribunal denied the request, finding that deferral was not appropriate for this purpose as the applicant continues to be protected by the reprisal provisions of the Human Rights Code.

The Ministry of the Attorney General (MAG) requested to be removed as a respondent to a human rights application alleging discrimination by court officers at the College Park Courthouse.

The applicant consented to the removal.

The Tribunal ordered MAG removed as a respondent on consent.

Human rights application dismissed for lack of jurisdiction as respondent is a federally-regulated business.

The applicant filed a human rights application alleging discrimination in employment against her former employer.

The Tribunal issued a Notice of Intent to Dismiss on the basis that the respondent is a federally-regulated business.

The Tribunal dismissed the application, finding that it lacked jurisdiction because the employment relationship was governed by federal law.

Human rights application alleging marital status discrimination in cottage eviction dismissed due to lack of organizational activity.

The applicant alleged that the respondents discriminated against her on the basis of marital status contrary to the Human Rights Code when they evicted her from a cottage she and her husband had used for twelve years.

The eviction occurred after her husband was suspended and expelled from the respondent organization.

The Tribunal found that the applicant was not evicted because of her marital status, but rather because she was not an active member of the organization, which was a requirement for cottage use.

The application was dismissed.

Motion to dismiss human rights application based on improperly obtained confidential information denied.

The respondents requested that the Tribunal dismiss the human rights application or strike portions of it, arguing it was based on confidential information improperly obtained by the applicant from a co-worker in breach of an arbitrator's order and the implied undertaking rule.

The Tribunal denied the request, finding insufficient evidence that the applicant knew of the confidentiality breaches to constitute an abuse of process.

The Tribunal also held that the documents were not protected by absolute privilege or the equitable doctrine of confidentiality.

Jo-Anne Pickel

HRTO0 cases2012–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioMar 4, 2014

Adjournment of hearing denied despite parties' consent due to Tribunal's institutional interest in managing resources.

In a human rights application, the respondent requested production of various documents from the applicant and indicated it might seek an adjournment of the upcoming three-day hearing due to outstanding production issues.

The applicant and co-respondent consented to the adjournment.

The Tribunal denied the adjournment request, emphasizing its institutional interest in managing resources and avoiding the loss of scheduled hearing days.

The Tribunal ordered the parties to make their required pre-hearing disclosure and provided directions for resolving the outstanding production issues on the first day of the hearing.

HRTO0 cases2012–2017

Application against hospital dismissed for lack of jurisdiction; summary hearing ordered for claims against WSIB.

The applicant filed a human rights application alleging discrimination based on disability and age against the WSIB and Hotel Dieu Hospital after his claim for WSIB benefits was denied.

The Tribunal issued a Notice of Intent to Dismiss.

The Tribunal dismissed the application against the hospital as it lacked jurisdiction, given no specific acts of discrimination were alleged.

The Tribunal ordered a summary hearing to determine whether the application against the WSIB should be dismissed based on adjudicative immunity, lack of jurisdiction to review benefit decisions, or having no reasonable prospect of success.

Martin v. Workplace Safety and Insurance Board, 2014 HRTO 283

Jo-Anne Pickel

HRTO0 cases2012–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioFeb 25, 2014

Human rights application dismissed as abandoned after applicant failed to attend mediation or respond to correspondence.

The applicant filed an application alleging discrimination under the Human Rights Code.

Both parties failed to attend the scheduled mediation and did not communicate with the Tribunal.

The Tribunal subsequently directed the applicant to advise of his intentions, warning that failure to respond might result in the application being deemed abandoned.

The applicant failed to respond.

Consequently, the Tribunal deemed the application abandoned and dismissed it.

Human rights application deferred pending conclusion of concurrent Employment Standards Act complaint on same facts.

The applicant filed a human rights application alleging discrimination on the basis of sex and reprisal after the respondents allegedly refused to allow her to return to her pre-pregnancy leave position.

The applicant also filed a concurrent complaint with the Ministry of Labour under the Employment Standards Act based on the same facts.

The Tribunal issued a Notice of Intent to Defer the application.

Finding that the factual circumstances overlapped almost completely and that there was a significant risk of inconsistent factual findings, the Tribunal ordered the deferral of the application pending the conclusion of the Employment Standards Act claim.

Request to amend human rights application to add post-filing reprisal allegations granted.

The applicant, a tenant, sought to amend her human rights application against her landlord to add allegations of reprisal concerning events that occurred after the initial application was filed.

The Tribunal granted the request, noting that the applicant could not have included the allegations originally, the hearing was months away, and the respondent failed to demonstrate prejudice.
