Temple Law Podcast | Episode: Keep Those Remarks to Yourself – Violence at Work

Can calling someone bald amount to sex-based harassment? In this episode, Zakariyya Seekdaur, Barrister at Law at Temple Law, breaks down a surprising UK tribunal case that ruled yes. We explore the legal reasoning behind this decision in British Bung Manufacturing Co Ltd & King v Finn [2023], its implications under UK law, and how Mauritius takes an even stronger stance under Section 114 of the Workers’ Rights Act 2019.

This episode is a reminder that in today’s workplace, words matter and understanding your rights and duties is more important than ever.
