HALIFAX -- An independent Nova Scotia human rights board of inquiry has settled a complaint without a finding of discrimination.
Mary Brown claimed she lost her job and had been discriminated against by the St. Vincent De Paul Society because of her disability.
St. Vincent De Paul denied it discriminated against her, and that Brown had been advised by her doctor that she should no longer continue working.
The Nova Scotia Human Rights Commission says it approved of the settlement that the two sides reached.
As part of the deal, the society will pay Brown $1,000 in general damages.
