Marion McKay, 52, quit the role last year after claiming airline bosses threatened to ban her from working on flights.
A cabin worker who quit her job over a row about her ‘extreme haircut’ loses £22,000 compensation bid at an employment tribunal An Ex-Jet2 worker who quit her job over a disagreement over her ‘extreme’ haircut has lost a £22k compensation bid. She took the budget airline to an employment tribunal claiming emotional distress and loss of earnings, but lost the claim after the panel ruled she was not discriminated against.
’ Kelly Bolton, cabin services regional manager, added that Marion’s hair was ‘more extreme’ than the styles of her male colleagues. She said: ‘She had changed her hair since she started. The claimant’s hairstyle was more extreme and shaven. ‘If she was a man we would approach her to let her know it is not in line with company guidance. We would have done that for anyone.’ But Marion’s lawyer, Amanda Buchanan, argued that her client was treated ‘more stringently’ because she is female.
