In this case, the complainant is a Polish national and is a qualified childcare worker. A number of incidents occurred after she notified her employer that she was pregnant, including disciplinary proceedings for an incident in the nursery, changes in her rota, which she considered to be more onerous than previously, claims that she had resigned when leaving a disciplinary proceedings and her eventual exclusion from employment.

The Tribunal concluded that the complainant had been discriminated against and dismissed on grounds of her pregnancy. In particular, a final written warning was a disproportionate penalty for what was, at most, a minor act of misconduct. The complainant was awarded €20,000. Complaints that her treatment was also on grounds of her nationality were not accepted by the Tribunal.
