LHR Airports Ltd

Case Summary

The claimant, a Muslim Security Officer of Palestinian affiliation, brought claims of direct discrimination, harassment, and victimisation arising from her employment at LHR Airports Ltd following an incident involving her Palestinian flag badge in November 2023. The tribunal found all claims not well-founded, concluding that the claimant's deep Palestinian affiliation coloured her interpretation of events and that she was not a reliable recaller of facts.

The tribunal found the claimant's claims not well-founded because it determined that the claimant's strong Palestinian affiliation colours her interpretation of events and that she is not a reliable or credible recaller of facts. The tribunal found that the respondent's actions were motivated by legitimate operational and procedural reasons rather than by the claimant's race, religion, or Palestinian affiliation.
