On the balance of probabilities the judge found the employer took the 23 October 1997 ultimatum and subsequent differential treatment with pregnancy and the EOC complaint in mind; the pregnancy was a reason for the ultimatum and reporting requirements, and the written warning and denial of the 1998 salary increase were acts of victimisation. The treatment amounted to constructive dismissal; employer liable for unlawful pregnancy discrimination and victimisation, with damages to be assessed later.
