The applicant had been employed as a bank nurse, subject to requirements not to work back to back shifts. She had worked such shifts. She complained of race discrimination, and on then being disciplined for working the shifts, she alleged sex and race discrimination. Her allegations were rejected by the ET, and she appealed, also alleging bias in the tribunal. A previous employee had not been treated differently, since the employers had, following that case seen the need to clarify procedures, and that had been done. The first complaint was not a protected act since the employer had not known of it when the decision was made to dismiss. There appeared no error of law in the tribunal’s decision.
