The applicant alleged discrimination in employment on the basis of pregnancy.

The Tribunal found that the store manager violated the Human Rights Code by asking the applicant during her job interview if she planned to have a family, and by creating an unwelcoming work environment after learning of her pregnancy.

The Tribunal dismissed the applicant's claim for lost income, finding she voluntarily chose not to return to work after her maternity leave.

The corporate respondent and the store manager were ordered to pay $3,000 for injury to dignity and self-respect.

The application against the co-president was dismissed.
