Tips for working more efficiently

A noteworthy aspect of a recent Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario decision involving a business owner and three transgendered women was the damages awarded, employment and human rights lawyer Deborah Howden tells Law Times.
The case of Salsman v. London Sales Arena Corp., 2014 HRTO 775 (CanLII) gained attention, “not only for awarding three transgender people damages but also because the tribunal found the discrimination had harmed a business owner even though she didn’t identify with that category,” the newspaper reports.
The case involved Karen Clarke-McIlwain, who operated a candle booth at a London, Ont. farmers’ market. Employee Daniella Freeman and her friends Judith Salsman and Falicity Chartrand (all of whom identify as transgender women) were working the booth when the 2011 incident occurred.
