Covid-19: Pregnant woman dismissed by Belfast firm awarded £15k

A woman who was made redundant while shielding during pregnancy has been awarded £15,000 in a discrimination case.

Flint Studios Ltd, based in Belfast, paid the money without admission of liability.

Susanne Rice was the only woman on the company’s senior leadership team.

She said a male colleague once described maternity leave as being “like an extended holiday”.
