The applicant filed a human rights application alleging that the respondent employer reprised against him by selectively disclosing confidential mediation information to the WSIB and refusing to waive confidentiality.
The respondent requested early dismissal, arguing that the applicant had signed a full and final release in a previous application and that the WSIB process had already dealt with the substance of the matter.
The Tribunal denied the request for early dismissal, finding that the settlement did not cover post-termination reprisal allegations and that the WSIB proceeding dealt with benefits rather than human rights issues.
