- High Court
The High Court held that, objectively assessed, hoki filleting and trimming are substantially similar work for the purposes of s22(1)(b); Ms Lewis was allocated to the lower‑paid trimmer role because of her sex and therefore suffered unlawful discrimination; the Tribunal's separate finding that Mr Edwards was victimised by non‑reappointment under s66 is upheld; the delay in the Tribunal's decision was regrettable but did not vitiate the proceedings.
