B.C.'s Human Rights Tribunal has ordered LifeLabs and a subsidiary to pay $32,000 to three transgender and non-binary people for "injury to their dignity" after separate instances of discrimination.

Tribunal member Theressa Etmanski said in her decision, posted last week, that LifeLabs and its subsidiary Excelleris Technologies misgendered and outed the three patients at service centres in Vancouver and Burnaby in 2019.

Etmanski also ordered LifeLabs to pay almost $3,000 in lost wages and $11,100 for an expert report.
