Two Suffolk officers won £23K in compensation after being wrongfully removed for gender balance, tribunal rules.
Two male Suffolk Police officers were awarded £23,000 in compensation after an employment tribunal ruled their forced removal from the South Kestrel team in March 2024 violated employment law.
The force had aimed to improve gender balance to better serve vulnerable women and handle tasks like female strip searches, but the tribunal found that replacing officers based on gender constituted sex discrimination.
The judge ruled that gender balance must be achieved through recruitment and positive action, not compulsory redeployment.
Both officers testified about the emotional toll, and Suffolk Constabulary accepted the ruling, apologized, and pledged to prevent future issues.
