The applicant sought judicial review of a Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario decision dismissing his application at a summary hearing.
The applicant alleged he was terminated due to a perceived disability after being exposed to COVID-19.
The Tribunal found he was terminated for violating workplace policies by failing to inform his spouse, a co-worker, of his exposure.
The Divisional Court held the Tribunal's decision was reasonable and procedurally fair, noting that a full merits hearing is not an absolute right and the Tribunal reasonably relied on the termination letter.
