London-based Macken banker Stacey BNP Paribas has won a sexual discrimination claim over allegations she was belittled by her boss and paid less than a male colleague. She also reported that a witch’s hat was left on her desk. BNP Paribas claimed £4m ($4.9m) in compensation and back pay but the final award has yet to be agreed. The Central London employment tribunal heard that BNP Paribas earned £120,000 a year, compared to £160,000 paid to a male counterpart, and that one boss replied, “not now, Stacey,” whenever she wanted to talk. The tribunal found that victimisation followed her initial complaints.
