Discriminatory Taunt!
A female employee won a sex discrimination claim accusing her boss of bullying and harassment towards because of her ‘hormonal state at work’. A series of taunts, including calling the female employee a ‘good looking girl’ and condemnation for her ‘too high standards’ led the employee to raise a grievance and then eventually resign from her role over the treatment she was receiving. This was a clear case of sexual discrimination and harassment and she was awarded over £23k plus £7.5k for injury to feelings.
