A senior IT worker who has been on sick leave for 15 years took his employer to court for discrimination because he has not received a pay rise.
Ian Clifford claimed to be a victim of disability discrimination by tech giant IBM because his salary has not increased in the time he has been off work.
The IT specialist receives more than £54,000 a year under the company's health plan and will receive the salary until he is 65, meaning he will pocket more than £1.5 million in total, the Mirror reports.
