A woman asked her employer, a large charitable organization, to accommodate her child care needs and allow her to work part time hours. She indicated that she would do the same workload, so it wouldn’t have to be reduced, and that she understood that she would not be eligible for benefits anymore. Her supervisor said she would speak to the Chief Operating Officer and get back to her. After doing so, he denied her request. They told her to come up with an alternate proposal and find a solution to her personal circumstances. Her supervisor called her at home and offered her a contract position which paid less than half of her current salary. She called the Centre and we helped her draft a written request for accommodation under the Human Rights Code. After receiving the written request (and realizing she got legal advice) the employer agreed to her part-time hours and they signed an agreement.
