A recruitment manager has won almost £10,000 in a pregnancy discrimination case after her female boss told her to 'stop faffing' when she said she was suffering from morning sickness.
Gemma Ferridge Gunn was asked by manager Rosie Caunt whether her condition was 'contagious', how long she was going to be off work and then was told: "I'm sorry I'm not sympathetic but I've never been pregnant".
The mother of two was sacked just eight days after telling her new employers she was expecting and just two days after she had to go home with morning sickness, an employment tribunal heard.
