ECNI Publishes Details of Settlements
The Equality Commission has announced settlements in two sexual harassment cases brought by women working in what have traditionally been seen as male occupations.
Coach driver Julie Rutherford, of Magherafelt, brought a case alleging sexual harassment against her former employers, Chambers Coach Hire, who settled the case for £22,500.
Majella Gallen from Coleraine, a manager in a used car business, alleged harassment and less favourable treatment on the grounds of sex and religious belief against her employer, JKC Specialist Cars of Coleraine, which settled the case without an admission of liability and paid Ms. Gallen £15,000.
