A £60,000-a-year manager who was sacked after exposing his genitals during a work video call because he stood up with no pants on has had his case thrown out.
The digital production manager for Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) was fired on January 30 last year after a disastrous virtual meeting in which he inadvertently flashed his colleagues.
But the employee took the firm to a tribunal, claiming unfair dismissal as well as racial discrimination.
His dismissal centred around a Microsoft Teams work call with a consultancy firm on May 8 2023 - which was a Bank Holiday because of King Charles III's Coronation.
During the call, the manager stood up to adjust a cable behind his computer, but stunned his colleagues as he was wearing nothing from the waist down and his genitals were on show.
