Everything that’s wrong…
A public relations worker has won almost £35,000 after her manager called her “disorganised”.
Nicole Hogger successfully sued for disability discrimination as she claimed the term “undermined” her and “violated her dignity”.
She was awarded the money in compensation after arguing she had been treated unlawfully because of her ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder), winning claims of disability harassment, disability discrimination, and unfair constructive dismissal.
Cambridge Employment Tribunal ruled in her favour, finding that Ms Hogger had been harassed.
She will receive £34,686 after suing Genesis PR, the company based in Ipswich, Suffolk, where she worked as a PR account manager.
Her manager, Alison Straker, used the word when Ms Hogger missed an important meeting without telling anyone she would be absent, a tribunal heard.
Ms Straker also alleged that she would miss calls because she had “been out for a massage, to Starbucks, or to the supermarket”.
But Ms Hogger was diagnosed with ADHD in 2021 after her doctor found she showed “poor organisation, forgetfulness and difficulty getting started on tasks requiring significant mental effort”. However, Ms Hogger never gave this report to her employers, instead mentioning the diagnosis to Ms Straker privately.
Useless Cunt in other words.
