Small v. HRM Inquiry to Start Sept. 22

An independent Nova Scotia Human Rights board of inquiry in the case of Rodney Small v. Halifax Regional Municipality is scheduled to be held Sept. 22-30.

Mr. Small, an African Nova Scotian, alleges he was subject to racial discrimination and harassment at his workplace when working for HRM.

Mr. Small alleges he was wrongfully terminated after a work-related injury. HRM denies the allegations and says the claimant’s employment was terminated for failure to report to work.

The board of inquiry is scheduled to begin at 9:30 a.m. each day, in the Valardo Room, Dartmouth Sportsplex, 110 Wyse Rd., Dartmouth. The board chair is Walter Thompson, who is independent of the commission, which is a party representing the public interest at the inquiry.
