I wonder what my chances would be if I filed a grievance for being denied opportunities for advancement because of being on maternity leave.
When I was on leave, I did not have access to the internal job postings for work, and since the competitions often take over a year, the competitions that were being held while I was on leave, that I was denied access to, are now completing. I have been passed over 3 times for positions on my own team alone due to the fact that my manager has to hire from these pools, and I am not able to access these pools.
So, labour law, and my collective agreement, state that a woman cannot be discriminated against for being on maternity or parental leave.
So, do you think I have a case?
