The BC Human Rights Tribunal is ordering a Kelowna software company to pay $10,000 to a former employee who was fired after just one week of work, saying the employer discriminated against him because of his criminal record.
The employee, referred to as Mr. T in the decision, was found guilty of bank robbery and obstruction of justice several years prior to his employment at MotiveWave Software, according to the June 13 ruling that was released this week.
