In the next three months a labour tribunal will hear the case of Jessica (formerly Josh) Bussert who claims that her employer, Hitachi Data Systems, discriminated against her because she was a transsexual. She is claiming damages of £500,000, the largest claim in the country's history for such a case.
The European Court of Justice ruled ten years ago that it is unlawful to discriminate against transsexuals in the work place. The Sex Discrimination (Gender Reassignment) Regulation of 1999 clearly states that people in the process of changing sexes are also covered under this ruling. There is no ceiling put on the amount that can be awarded in such cases.
