Human rights application deferred pending completion of concurrent grievance arbitration addressing the same termination.
The applicant filed a human rights application alleging discrimination on the basis of disability, race, colour, and ancestry regarding his termination, accommodation, and shift assignments.
A concurrent grievance arbitration was already underway challenging the termination.
The Tribunal, on its own initiative, considered whether to defer the application.
Finding that the central issue of termination was being addressed in the arbitration, and that the earlier allegations of failure to accommodate and discriminatory shift assignments were tied to the termination for jurisdictional purposes, the Tribunal deferred the application pending the completion of the grievance process.
