SUMMARY:Relative Accommodations: An update on family status discrimination (childcare\, eldercare\, spousal responsibilities\, etc.)
DESCRIPTION:The applicable test for prima facie discrimination on the basis of family status varies across jurisdictions\, creating uncertainty in the absence of definitive guidance from the Supreme Court of Canada.

Specifically\, panelists will address: \nOption: Live Webinar\, video\, and MP3 Bundle | Live Webinar | Video and MP3$595.00Add to cart	\n			\n \n\nWhat are the various tests for establishing prima facie discrimination based on family status in Canada — including the Moore\, Johnstone\, Misetech\, and Campbell River tests — and in which jurisdictions are they applied?\nWhat approach do decision-makers take to family status discrimination cases in Ontario? What is the Johnstone test and is it still good law? What is the impact of the Ontario Human Rights Tribunal’s Misetech v. Value Village Stores Inc. decision? What approach have decision-makers taken post Misetech?\nWhat is the current legal approach to family status discrimination in British Columbia? What impact has the B.C. Court of Appeal’s Gibraltar Mines decision had on family status discrimination claims in the province?\n\n\nWhat forms of caregiving fall under the scope of family status protection? Which relationships are protected? What types of activities\, responsibilities\, and obligations flowing from these relationships give rise to legal protection?\nWhat constitutes a serious interference with a family obligation such that it will amount to family status discrimination? How can employers and unions distinguish between protected family responsibilities and personal preferences?\nWhat kinds of accommodations have courts recognized as reasonable accommodations? What qualifies as “undue hardship” for an employer when it comes to family status accommodation?\nWhat are the emerging trends in damage awards for discrimination\, failure to accommodate\, and reprisals relating to family status claims?\n\nModerator\n  \n\n \nKrista Smith\nFounder\, Root & Branch – Workplace Conflict Resolutions Inc.\n \n\n\nSpeakers\n\n \nDayna Steinfeld\nUnion Counsel\nRavenlaw LLP \n\n\n \nMelanie Vipond\nEmployer Counsel\nGall Legg Grant Zwack \n\n\nAccreditationCPD\n\n\nThis program has been approved by CPHR Alberta for 1.5 Continuing Professional Development hours.\n\n\n\n\nThis program has been approved by CPHR BC & Yukon for 1.5 Continuing Professional Development hours.\n\n\n\n\nThis program has been approved for Continuing Professional Development 1.5 hours under Section A of the Continuing Professional Development (CPD) Log of the Human Resource Professionals Association (HRPA).\n\n\n\n\n \n\nThis program has been approved by the Law Society of British Columbia for 1.5 Continuing Professional Development hours.\nMembers of the Law Society of Ontario may consider counting this program for 1.5 Substantive hours; 0 Professionalism hours.\nMembers of the Nova Scotia Barristers’ Society may count this program for 1.5 Continuing Professional Development hours.\nMembers of the Law Society of New Brunswick may consider this program for 1.5 Continuing Professional Development hours.
