FAQ

They are called grounds of discrimination and are listed in the Canadian Human Rights Act. For example: Were you fired because of your race? Were you denied a service because of your gender identity, your colour, your disability? Maybe it was about more than one thing.

Racial discrimination examples include not hiring a qualified candidate, giving someone an undesirable job or task that they're overqualified for, passing someone over for a promotion, or otherwise making the workplace a hostile environment based solely on the employee's race.

Discrimination means treating someone unfairly because of one of their protected personal characteristics. The Human Rights Act prohibits discrimination on the basis of personal characteristics. A person is either born with these personal characteristics or they acquire them later in life.

Workplace discrimination is harmful and unlawful under Ontario's Human Rights Code. If you have experienced unfair treatment by your employer based on protected grounds such as age, gender, race, or disability, you may have legal recourse.

Provision. 13. A witness who testifies in any proceedings has the right not to have any incriminating evidence so given used to incriminate that witness in any other proceedings, except in a prosecution for perjury or for the giving of contradictory evidence.

Discrimination is an action or a decision that treats a person or a group unfairly or negatively for reasons such as their race, age or disability.

Instead, the understanding of discrimination has evolved from case law. To establish prima facie discrimination (discrimination on its face) under the Code, a claimant must show that: they have a characteristic protected from discrimination. they have experienced an adverse impact within a social area protected.

To prove discrimination, a complainant has to prove that: they have a characteristic protected by the Human Rights Code Code; they experienced an adverse impact with respect to an area protected by the Code; and. the protected characteristic was a factor in the adverse impact.
