The applicant filed a human rights application alleging age discrimination following his termination.
The respondent employer requested dismissal on the basis that the applicant had signed a full and final release in exchange for a severance package.
The applicant argued the release was void due to misrepresentation and because it contracted out of the Employment Standards Act.
The Tribunal found no evidence of misrepresentation and determined the severance package provided a greater benefit than statutory minimums.
The application was dismissed as an abuse of process.
