Religious Conviction

Examples of the types of complaints we have resolved include:

Religious conviction discrimination in employment

A woman alleged discrimination in her employment when her employment duties were altered and her original position was made redundant causing her a great deal of distress in her employment. She alleges that the changes occurred as a result of her religious conviction.

The matter was resolved through conciliation with a payment of $12,000 in compensation.
