£36k Awarded to Victim of Inappropriate Conduct at Christmas Office Event
A woman has won a £36,000 payout after she experienced “unwanted and inappropriate physical contact” from a colleague during her office Christmas party.
The incident occurred in December 2022 at a staff event, and it was reported that the inappropriate contact was witnessed by several colleagues.
The woman, who works for a prominent organization, took legal action after the behavior was not addressed satisfactorily by her employer.
The settlement was reached after a tribunal hearing, where her claims of harassment and the failure of the employer to take proper action were upheld.
