5.4. In compliance with the Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms (chapter C-12), the employer, its officers and their respective representatives shall work together, using appropriate means, in order to obtain the cessation of discrimination against officers.
Discrimination exists wherever a distinction, exclusion or preference has the effect of destroying, compromising or limiting a right conferred on an officer by this Regulation or by the Act.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a distinction, exclusion or preference based on the skills or qualities required to carry out the tasks of a position is deemed to be non-discriminatory.
