A project manager filed a lawsuit against his ex-employer, a charitable foundation, via the Equal Opportunities Commission after he was fired for being infected with Covid-19. The 49-year-old project manager Tario M was employed by a charitable foundation in 2020 but confirmed with Covid-19 one month later. The manager on Monday filed a lawsuit to the District Court through the EOC, alleging that the foundation had violated the Disability Discrimination Ordinance. He then accompanied his wife for an antenatal examination on January 16, so he took another day of unpaid leave. Therefore, the foundation terminated his employment contract from his last day of work and transferred his salary to his bank account.
