Tracey McGann has accused ERS Genomics Ltd of discrimination, victimisation and discriminatory constructive dismissal

ERS Genomics, co-founded by Nobel laureate Emmanuelle Charpentier, is contesting the claims at the Workplace Relations Commission. Photograph: Colin Keegan/CollinsThe former head of finance at a cutting-edge biotech firm claims she told its chief executive officer that she was “not a waitress” after he told her a group had no red wine at a company dinner last year, the Workplace Relations Commission has heard.

Ms McGann had previously “annoyed” the company’s owners by citing payroll data to them showing that she had been given a smaller-percentage pay rise in 2020 than any of her colleagues, all of whom were male, the WRC was told. But after seeking a candidate to fill the role with the chief executive’s sanction, Ms McGann was later told to suspend the process, with a contractor placed in the position instead and the complainant continuing to work full-time hours with no clarity on when they might be reduced, Ms McGann said in her evidence.

She resigned her position the following January, 13 days after sending the firm a legal letter outlining her grievances, to which she said she got no response.
