An employment tribunal heard that Andrea Wainwright (pictured) was left 'traumatised and broken' when she found out through Linkedin that a colleague had taken over her role.
A woman has been handed a £40,000 payout from her bosses after her job was given to someone else whilst she was off sick with breast cancer.
Five years on and Ms Wainwright has won her claim for disability discrimination and unfair dismissal after successfully suing Cennox. Ms Cawthorne started her new role on November 1 and a new organisational chart, a graphic to showcase a company's internal structure, was sent out.'On 23 November 2018, discovered a post on LinkedIn inviting viewers to"Congratulate Shelley for starting a new position as Head of Installations at Cennox",' the tribunal heard.
The tribunal found that this email was 'misleading' as it gave the impression Ms Cawthorne's role was temporary. Her complaint was not upheld and then at the end of August she discovered she had been misled, as Ms Cawthorne told her that her appointment as Head of Installations was permanent, not temporary as her bosses had claimed.
Ms Wainwright said: 'I am very unhappy about the way I have been treated and set out some of the more serious matters.
