ADHD | HR worker was 'set up to fail' after being made to do payroll from a 'cupboard'

An HR worker has been awarded more than £200,000 after a tribunal found her manager used a payroll assignment to build a case against her, rather than help her overcome difficulties linked to ADHD.

Roberta Ghiotto, a Talent and Culture Coordinator at Hawkwell House Hotel in Oxford, succeeded in claims of direct disability discrimination and failure to make reasonable adjustments, after being told to complete a payroll task while working in a “former cupboard”, away from other colleagues.
