ANMF win: anti-discrimination case awards member $40,000
An ANMF (Vic Branch) Job Representative recently had a major win in an anti-discrimination case in the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT). The claim was brought by Gordon Legal on behalf of the member with the backing of the ANMF (Vic Branch). The member was awarded $40,000 in compensation after VCAT found that her employer had ‘directly discriminated against her on the ground of industrial activity’.
