HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioDec 7, 2010

Request to consolidate two human rights applications alleging racial discrimination and reprisal granted.

The applicant requested the consolidation of two human rights applications alleging racial discrimination and reprisal against the respondents.

The Tribunal applied the test for consolidation, finding common issues of fact and law, and that consolidation would avoid a multiplicity of proceedings without causing prejudice to the respondents.

The request for consolidation was granted and case management directions were issued.

DeFreitas v. Ontario Public Service Employees Union, 2010 HRTO 2428

Mark Hart

HRTO0 cases2007–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioDec 2, 2010

Human rights applications reactivated; abandoning grievance arbitration to pursue Tribunal proceeding is not an abuse of process.

The applicant sought to reactivate her human rights applications after they were deferred pending a grievance arbitration.

The grievance was dismissed because the applicant refused to cooperate with the union.

The respondents opposed reactivation, arguing the applicant missed the 60-day deadline and that her conduct amounted to an abuse of process.

The Tribunal allowed the reactivation, finding the 5-day delay caused no prejudice, and held that choosing not to participate in the arbitration process in favour of the human rights proceeding was not an abuse of process.

The applicant's request to postpone the proceeding pending an Ombudsman complaint was denied.

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioDec 1, 2010

Personal respondents removed from human rights application as corporate respondent accepted vicarious liability.

The applicant filed a human rights complaint alleging discrimination in the non-renewal of a commercial lease.

The respondents requested the removal of three personal respondents (employees of the respondent Board).

Applying the Persaud factors, the Tribunal found that the corporate respondent accepted vicarious liability, had the ability to remedy any infringement, and there was no compelling reason to continue the proceeding against the individuals personally.

The request to remove the personal respondents was granted.

Mohamud Osman v. Toronto District School Board, 2010 HRTO 2387

Mark Hart

HRTO0 cases2007–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioNov 30, 2010

Request for reconsideration of human rights application dismissal denied as no grounds were established.

The applicant requested a reconsideration of a Tribunal decision that dismissed his human rights application against a hospital and a doctor.

The applicant argued that the decision conflicted with established jurisprudence and Tribunal procedure, raising issues with credibility findings, medical evidence regarding his intoxication and glucose levels, and the admissibility of certain documents.

The Tribunal found no basis to alter its credibility assessments or factual findings and concluded that the applicant failed to demonstrate any conflict with established jurisprudence or procedure.

The request for reconsideration was denied.

Kumar v. William Osler Health Centre, 2010 HRTO 2379

Mark Hart

HRTO0 cases2007–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioNov 29, 2010

Human rights application alleging racial discrimination in employment dismissed for lack of evidence.

The applicant, a former courier driver, alleged discrimination in employment based on race and ethnic origin against the dispatcher and co-owner of the courier company.

He claimed he was underpaid, assigned unfavorable routes, yelled at, and improperly terminated, culminating in a dispute over undelivered packages that involved the police.

The Tribunal found that the respondents' actions were motivated by legitimate business concerns, such as ensuring timely deliveries and retrieving packages after the employment relationship ended, rather than the applicant's race or ethnic origin.

The application was dismissed.

Mark Hart

HRTO0 cases2007–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioNov 19, 2010

Tribunal orders pre-hearing disclosure and refuses to remove personal respondent whose conduct is central.

In an interim decision regarding an application alleging discrimination in employment on the basis of disability, the Tribunal addressed the respondents' Request for Order.

The Tribunal granted the respondents a brief extension to file pre-hearing materials and ordered the self-represented applicant to disclose relevant documents, including medical records, and provide witness statements.

The Tribunal also proposed bifurcating the hearing to deal with liability first.

Finally, the Tribunal dismissed the respondents' request to remove the personal respondent as a party, finding that his decision to terminate the applicant's employment was a central issue in the proceeding.

Step v. Mazin Furniture Industries, 2010 HRTO 2314

Mark Hart

HRTO0 cases2007–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioNov 19, 2010

Tribunal denies applicant's requests for consolidation, deferral, disclosure, and adjournment of human rights applications.

The applicant requested an order to consolidate two human rights applications against the respondent, defer one application pending criminal proceedings, obtain disclosure of materials from a separate application, and adjourn an upcoming hearing.

The Tribunal denied all requests.

Consolidation was denied because the events were separated by three years and lacked common issues.

Deferral was denied as the allegations did not relate to the criminal charge.

Disclosure was denied because the applicant was not a party to the other proceeding.

The adjournment was denied because the applicant had ample time to retain counsel and prepare for the hearing.

Miller v. Bernard, 2010 HRTO 2313

Late-disclosed documents admitted to ensure fair resolution on merits; hearing adjourned and bifurcated.

In an interim decision, the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario addressed the respondent's late disclosure of highly relevant documents on the morning of the hearing.

Although the adjudicator found the respondent failed to exercise due diligence, the documents were admitted to ensure a fair and just resolution on the merits, as there was no evidence of fabrication or deliberate concealment.

An adjournment was granted on consent due to the late disclosure.

The Tribunal also ordered the bifurcation of the hearing into liability and remedy phases and issued case management directions requiring the parties to file complete statements of evidence in advance of the next hearing dates.

Tribunal orders limited production of comparator faculty promotion dossiers and prior discrimination complaints.

In an application alleging discrimination in the denial of a promotion to Associate Professor, both parties made requests for the production of documents.

The Tribunal ordered the respondents to produce unredacted Annual Reports and promotion dossiers for faculty members who applied for similar promotions within a five-year period, as well as information regarding prior discrimination complaints against the personal respondents or relating to similar promotion denials.

The Tribunal denied the applicant's request for exit surveys and broader statistical data.

The respondents' request for documents relating to the applicant's subsequent employment and achievements was dismissed as not arguably relevant to the liability phase of the bifurcated proceeding.

Human rights application alleging racial discrimination in employment dismissed due to insufficient reliable evidence.

The applicant, a Black woman employed as a Case Manager, alleged discrimination in employment on the basis of race and ethnic origin by her employer and its Executive Director.

She claimed she was subjected to racial comments, her time with clients of colour was restricted, she was demoted, and her complaints were ignored.

The Tribunal found insufficient reliable evidence to support the allegations, noting inconsistencies in the applicant's evidence and a lack of corroboration.

The application was dismissed.

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioOct 27, 2010

Tribunal awards $1,500 for injury to dignity following finding of workplace harassment and poisoned environment.

The applicant sought remedies following a previous Tribunal decision that found a co-worker's comments constituted harassment and created a poisoned work environment based on sex, marital status, and family status.

The applicant requested $40,000 for injury to dignity, feelings, and self-respect, as well as an apology from the corporate respondent.

The Tribunal awarded $1,500 in compensation, noting the violation involved two comments over a short period without supporting medical evidence of severe impact.

The Tribunal declined to order an apology or public interest remedies, finding the corporate respondent had already taken appropriate steps, including requiring the co-worker to attend sensitivity training.

Request for production of employee qualification certificates denied as documents were either irrelevant or non-existent.

The applicant filed a Request for Order seeking production of apprenticeship and qualification certificates for numerous General Motors employees.

Human rights application alleging sexual and racial harassment in employment dismissed for lack of evidence.

The applicant alleged discrimination and harassment in employment on the basis of age, colour, ethnic origin, place of origin, race, and sex.

She claimed she was subjected to sexually-related gossip, inappropriate monitoring, racial comments, and an unjustified Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) that led to her termination.

The Tribunal found insufficient evidence to support the allegations of sexual or racial harassment.

The Tribunal concluded that the respondents' actions, including the PIP, were reasonable responses to legitimate work performance and timeliness issues, and that management was not made aware of any Code-related concerns.

The application was dismissed.

Mark Hart

HRTO0 cases2007–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioOct 22, 2010

Request for reconsideration of decision dismissing application under s. 45.1 of the Code denied.

The applicant requested a reconsideration of a previous Tribunal decision that dismissed her human rights application under s. 45.1 of the Human Rights Code.

The original application was dismissed because its substance had already been dealt with by the Ontario Civilian Commission on Police Services.

The Tribunal reviewed the applicant's reconsideration request under Rule 25.5 of the Tribunal's Rules of Procedure.

Finding no new determinative facts, no denial of notice, no conflict with established jurisprudence, and no other factors outweighing the public interest in the finality of decisions, the Tribunal denied the request for reconsideration.

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioOct 19, 2010

Tribunal reconsiders prior dismissal and allows application to proceed on the ground of perceived mental disability.

The applicant filed a human rights complaint alleging discrimination in the provision of medical services.

The Tribunal previously dismissed the application for failing to set out a prima facie case on the grounds of race, ancestry, colour, ethnic origin, place of origin, or marital status.

On its own motion, the Tribunal reconsidered its decision after the Commission noted that the ground of disability had been added to the complaint.

The Tribunal found that the applicant's allegations regarding physical restraints and lack of proper assessment due to a perceived mental disability were sufficient to establish a prima facie case.

The applicant's request to reconsider the dismissal of the other grounds was denied.

The respondent's request for production of medical and employment records was denied as irrelevant or premature.

HRTO0 cases2007–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioOct 19, 2010

Tribunal reconsiders and sets aside written dismissal of application due to prior direction requiring oral submissions.

The Tribunal reconsidered on its own initiative a previous written decision that dismissed the Application against the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care.

The adjudicator had been unaware of a prior Case Assessment Direction by another Vice-chair that directed the Ministry's request to dismiss be heard with oral submissions at the scheduled hearing.

Acknowledging that section 43(2).1 of the Code requires an opportunity for oral submissions before final disposal, the adjudicator set aside the dismissal of the Application against the Ministry so the issue could be determined at the hearing.

Villella v. Regional Municipality of York Emergency Medical Services Branch, 2010 HRTO 2110

Mark Hart

HRTO0 cases2007–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioOct 19, 2010

Request for reconsideration denied as applicant failed to provide any supporting reasons or representations.

The applicant filed a request for reconsideration of a previous decision that dismissed his human rights application on the basis that the substance had already been dealt with by the Ontario Labour Relations Board.

The applicant relied on Rule 25.5(c) and (d) but failed to provide any detailed reasons or representations to support his request.

The Tribunal found no basis to support the request, noting the decision was consistent with established jurisprudence and no factors outweighed the public interest in finality.

The request for reconsideration was denied.
