TORONTO (NEWS 1130) – Ontario’s largest electricity provider says it has rehired a Toronto engineer fired after soccer fans yelled sexually explicit taunts at a TV reporter this spring.

Shawn Simoes lost his job as an assistant network management engineer with Hydro One this May in connection with an incident at a Toronto FC game that was captured on camera and widely denounced on social media.

The company said at the time that he was terminated for violating its employee code of conduct.

Hydro One said Monday that the matter “was resolved through the arbitration process” during which the company “made its views very clear.”

Social media tips had identified Simoes as one of several hecklers caught on video hurling obscenities at CityNews reporter Shauna Hunt. Hunt fought back by questioning the men about their conduct, but the video shows the men dismissing her questions.

She later said the confrontation came about after almost a year of nearly constant harassment.

and another article i saw the company is going through the process of firing him but there needs to be a hearing etc. and i find it hard to believe he'd lose that trial

:accepted:

His union saved his ass ...

i'm late to the party and i just looked over the first page but wouldn't the guy have to agree to be interviewed at some point; sign a wavier or something? when hydro one saw the interview and he got fired as a result, couldn't he sue the reporter or the news station for damages? his 6 figure job isn't chump change

^ Street interviews, they just come up to you, no wavier to sign. If you watch the video in the op again, the guy was just standing there. When he didn't walk off and instead "man up" to the reporter confronting her, he agreed to be interviewed right there. Don't see ground for suing when he took no action to avoid confrontation in the first place.
