The applicant filed a human rights application alleging discrimination in employment based on age and disability.
The respondent requested to dismiss the application under section 45.1 of the Human Rights Code, arguing that withdrawn grievances had appropriately dealt with the substance of the application.
The Tribunal denied the request to dismiss, noting that withdrawn grievances do not satisfy section 45.1.
The Tribunal also granted the Union's request to intervene, finding it had a significant interest in the matter due to the applicant's allegations of unsupportive union representation.
