Mr A Weatherby v Amcrol Limited — 2020

At the hearing in Llandudno on 6, 7, 10 and 11 February 2020 before Employment Judge R F Powell and members Mrs Peel and Mrs Atkinson, the tribunal unanimously upheld all four liability claims. It found that the claimant’s claim of sexual harassment was well founded, that his claim of direct discrimination on the grounds of sex was well founded, that his victimisation claim was well founded, and that he had been unfairly dismissed.

On remedy, the tribunal ordered the respondent to pay £17,250.00 for injury to feelings and £1,495.00 interest on that award. It also ordered payment of £2,310.20 as compensation arising from the unfair dismissal, stated to cover six weeks' basic net salary, six weeks' net pension contributions and loss of statutory rights. The extracted reasons do not allocate the injury to feelings figure between the discrimination, harassment and victimisation findings.
