Photograph: Colin Keegan/CollinsA former call-centre manager with Concern Worldwide said bullying and harassment complaints against him were down to a “Gen Z/woke alliance” at work. Caluan had admitted calling a colleague a “b***h” in the course of a workplace inquiry into bullying and harassment complaints from three workers, a manager told the tribunal. An investigations manager who gave evidence said Caluan “did not wish to engage” with the investigation initially and “declined any further or follow-up investigations”. This led to a “marked change in how he was treated”, Caluan told the tribunal.
