Human Resources
1. Under the Human Rights Code, everyone has the right to be treated equally in employment. Nevertheless, everyone must be granted access to the same opportunities and benefits, and to be treated with equal dignity and respect. Race, colour, place of origin, ethnic origin, sex, religion, sexual orientation, age, record of offences, marital status, family status or disability are not justifiable reasons for employers to use to discriminate against their employees, or applicants.

Naheed was obviously more qualified then her predecessor, as her current boss Joe Banks had allowed her to perform work related duties that were generally reserved for supervisors. This included training all of the new staff. Joe Banks knew how important she was to the company as he had also implemented some of her suggestions to improve office operations. Furthermore, we believe that Naheed should be offered a new position within the company where her skills can be utilized.
