UK tribunal discovers baldness is now a protected characteristic
Calling a man “bald” can now legally count as sexual harassment in the UK — yes, you read that right.
A recent employment tribunal ruled that insulting a man over his baldness is no different from making comments about a woman’s body. It started with a factory worker who said his supervisor mocked his hair loss… and the court agreed it crossed the line.
The decision has now set a nationwide precedent, putting appearance-based insults — including bald jokes — in the same category as sexual harassment.
UK workplace culture just changed in a big way.
