The compiler's being dead slow today, so here's another thing I've bumped into.

A civil servant who complained about being made to wear a collar and tie to work has won a sex discrimination case.

He had told the Manchester tribunal that women were allowed to wear T-shirts - and even football shirts - without facing disciplinary action from managers.

The Public and Commercial Services (PCS) union, which backed the case, said it planned a further 39 cases if a "sensible solution" was not now agreed with managers.


Two cases, a few days apart - both industrial tribunals. Drifting casualwards?

This case looks slightly different in that it sounds like there were no significant standards of dress for women and fairly strict ones for men. Likely repercussions of this case will spread though and mandatory ties will gradually become less common.
