A black security manager who was called a 'slave' by a white colleague has won a £361,000 payout, an employment tribunal has heard.
Richard Assan, who worked at Vigilant Security for 15 years, resigned in April 2022.
He left the company, which is run by ex-military personnel after raising race complaints and claiming that he was victimised.
The tribunal in London, accepted that 'race-based incidents' had occurred and found Mr Assan's claims of victimisation and unfair (constructive) dismissal proven.
It was also revealed that the firm has a 'striking imbalance' between racial profiles as a large number of guards and team leaders are from ethnic minority groups while the managers are mainly white.
