Peggie to appeal employment tribunal ruling |
| Fife nurse Sandie Peggie, who was suspended after objecting to sharing a female changing room with a transgender doctor, has said she will appeal the employment tribunal's findings. While the tribunal ruled Peggie had been harassed by NHS Fife, it dismissed her broader claims of discrimination and victimisation. "Whilst I am delighted that the tribunal was critical of Fife Health Board and found they harassed me, their judgement falls short in many respects," Peggie said, adding that she would "not be giving up this legal fight any time soon." On Thursday, it emerged that the judgement had been amended after campaigner Maya Forstater said a reference to her own landmark case had been "completely made up." The tribunal has now issued a "certificate of correction" citing clerical errors, though the overall outcome remains unchanged. Peggie's solicitor Margaret Gribbon said work on the appeal was already under way, and she described several of the tribunal's findings as "hugely problematic." |
