Upcoming Hearings

As part of the human rights complaint process, the Yukon Human Rights Commission may ask for a decision from the Human Rights Board of Adjudication.

If a complaint cannot be settled, it will be referred to a Board of Adjudication for hearing.

The hearing is before a panel of at least three Adjudicators who are appointed by the Legislature and independent of the Yukon Human Rights Commission. The Board can make an order to stop the discrimination, to pay damages for financial loss caused by the discrimination and to pay compensation for "injury to dignity, feelings or self-respect". An order of the Board of Adjudication can be appealed on questions of law to the Supreme Court of the Yukon. Decisions of the Board are public.

For further information on the Board of Adjudication contact Secretariat Deana Lemke at 667-7500 or beyondwords@northwestel.net.
