The applicant filed an application alleging discrimination on the basis of disability.
The respondent requested an adjournment of the scheduled hearing because a key witness was on disability leave.
The Tribunal denied the adjournment request, finding no exceptional circumstances, as there was no medical evidence showing the witness was incapable of testifying and the hearing could proceed with other evidence first.
The Tribunal also confirmed the removal of the human resources manager as a personal respondent on consent of the parties.
