Primark’s transgender discrimination case

A Primark employee was constructively dismissed after being harassed for being transgender.

An employment tribunal told Primark to adopt a policy on how to deal with transgender staff after it found an employee was discriminated against for being transgender. The employment tribunal held that this was a case of direct gender reassignments discrimination as the store failed to handle the matter appropriately. The employee was awarded £47,433.03 in compensation to cover injury to feelings and loss of pay and pension contributions.
