Company sued for discrimination

Airlink Management services were taken to the Employment Tribunal in Glasgow because they dismissed an employee due to the fact she was pregnant. The ex employee was informed that she was to be made redundant due to a switch around within the company and her position was no longer needed. However, the employee had her suspicions that the real reason for her redundancy was the fact she was pregnant.

The tribunal heard that she later discovered she had been replaced by phoning the company and asking for herself. The tribunal agreed that the employee had been dismissed due to her pregnancy and awarded her over £5000 compensation.
