In Ontario individuals cannot be discriminated against based on the fourteen grounds listed in the Human Rights Code. These grounds are as follows:
- Race
- Ancestry
- Place of origin
- Colour
- Ethnic origin
- Citizenship
- Creed
- Sex
- Sexual orientation
- Age
- Record of offences
- Martial status
- Family status
- Disability
Individuals should be free from discrimination when it comes to areas of employment law.
There are certain exceptions to the discrimination provisions. If you are unclear call me a Mississauga Employment Lawyer.
