Bethan Littlewood arrived on time after travelling through the night, but her manager was ‘double booked’
Doesn’t seem to me to be enough. The dickhead manager was supported by multiple levels of management over years of harassment and I wonder how much wasn’t reported and documented.
Misleading headline, this one a single example of many wrongs, some significantly more explicitly illegal:
She went to the employment tribunal, successfully claiming unfair dismissal, unauthorised deductions from wages, holiday pay, and being subjected to a detriment for making protected disclosure.
What a shitty manager and company.
She deserves far better

Jesus, there’s far more to it than the headline implies! What a dickhead of a boss.

Yeah, this was clearly about far more than just that headline.
This is years of retaliation and malice being not just actively covered up, but even upheld by her Nuffield Health. Like this is a textbook example of illegal workplace conduct.
I'm glad she was rightly awarded monetary damages in the end, but she really deserved more for what she was put through - and those involved should've been punished.

She only reported the matter after she had first raised it with him and he reacted in a “hostile manner”.
Ms Littlewood was informed that Mr Morris would have to go through “retraining” to make sure he was carrying out the tests in the right way.
From that month onwards, Mr Morris began withholding three hours of pay a week from Ms Littlewood.
