The applicant filed a human rights application alleging discrimination in employment based on race and sex after refusing to work in what he considered an unsafe situation.
The applicant had also filed four union grievances relating to the same incident.
The respondent requested that the application be deferred until the grievances were resolved.
The Tribunal found a significant overlap of facts and issues between the application and the pending grievances.
To avoid the risk of conflicting determinations, the Tribunal deferred the application pending the resolution of the grievance process.
