- An Ontario school board has decided that a male shop teacher can continue wearing enormous fetish breast prosthetics while teaching children following an uproar from parents and students.
- “If an employer’s dress and grooming standards place more difficult requirements on female employees relative to those placed on male employees or require female employees to dress in a manner which is more conventional, such standards could form the basis of a discrimination claim under the Code,” the report from HDSB read.
- “Similarly, it is important to recognize the impact that dress code policies can have on members of the transgender community,” it added. “Most notably, it is important for employers to make allowances to ensure that these employees are able to express themselves in accordance with their lived gender.”
