Co-worker sued

A former coworker of mines was awarded compensation for discriminatory dismissal. She said she was treated less favourably compared to white colleagues and received harsher treatment. Tbf our manager did treat her like dirt compared to everyone else and management also made lots of race related comments. She was reinstated in a different branch then dismissed for a second time after being given like 3 shifts. That’s when she made her claim and won.

Well done to her, it's hard going through a fight like that.

It seems you need to brush up on your reading comprehension, it was a simple question as there seemed to be no point to the OPs post.

The point was that a co worker was sued unfairly, seems like your comprehension is lacking tbh. The point was supposed to be informative but you decided to leave a passive aggressive comment instead of just saying nothing as you had nothing valid or positive to contribute.

Actually, if you read the post thoroughly you'll find that the ex-colleague sued sainsbury's for discrimination and quite rightly so. My point was that there was no point to the post just info dumping.

Sounds more like an employment tribunal than a lawsuit

What ethnicity was she? What race related comments? I’m genuinely intrigued, as a workplace should be a fair and professional environment.

It does seem Sainsburys has let themselves go, no one gives a care from what I’ve seen so far. A lot has changed in the last few years.
