Paulina Bawej told to take a pay cut before receiving threatening messages and being fired, employment tribunal hears
A restaurant manager whose boss told her “you will be terminated” after she revealed she was pregnant has won a payout of more than £35,000.
Paulina Bawej, 32, was first told by her manager she must take a pay cut of £4,000 before receiving threatening messages and then being fired, an employment tribunal heard.
Ms Bawej, who represented herself, has now been awarded £35,492 in compensation after successfully suing for pregnancy discrimination and unfair dismissal.
The company that employed her, Huangs Grill, runs Japanese restaurants Sushinoen, in Whitechapel, east London, and Taisho, in Golders Green, north London.
