We look at four employment law cases where the employee was successful and the tribunal ordered the employer to pay substantial compensation in three of them.
In Earl Shilton Town Council v Miller, the Employment Appeal Tribunal held that the employer's provision of inadequate toilet facilities for women was direct sex discrimination.
In Reilly v RT Management Bridgeton Ltd, an employment tribunal held that a line manager's failure to address an employee's request to have a sanitary waste disposal bin placed in the staff toilet because she was "the only female of menstruating age who used the toilet" constituted sex discrimination.
