Normand Hector, a former Xerox Canada employee, has found validation in a decision from the New Brunswick Human Rights Commission. The commission concluded that there was sufficient evidence to suggest Hector was discriminated against due to his race.
This comes four years after Hector filed a complaint alleging he was paid less than his colleagues because he is Black, said the CBC.
The commission’s report recommended an inquiry, referring the matter to the Labour and Employment Board. While no dates have been set for the hearing, Hector expressed relief at this progress.
