The applicant filed a human rights application alleging discrimination in employment on the basis of race and colour following a workplace assault.
The respondent employer requested that the application be deferred pending the resolution of a related union grievance.
The applicant's union requested intervenor status.
The Tribunal granted the union's request to intervene, finding it had an interest in potential remedies affecting the bargaining unit.
The Tribunal declined to defer the application, noting the grievance was in abeyance and did not appear to raise human rights issues.
