Human rights application alleging age discrimination dismissed at summary hearing for no reasonable prospect of success.
The applicant alleged that his employment was terminated due to age discrimination.
The Tribunal directed a summary hearing to determine if the application should be dismissed.
The Tribunal found that the applicant's evidence—that he was the youngest employee in his division and was once called a 'young punk' by a supervisor—was insufficient to establish a link between his termination and his age, especially given his acknowledged performance and reliability issues.
The application was dismissed as having no reasonable prospect of success.
