NHS Fife护士Sandie Peggie已向仲裁庭提起诉讼,指控其工会皇家护理学院在一场涉及跨性别问题的争议中提供支持不足,并声称遭到歧视1。Peggie在NHS Fife工作超过30年1,她拒绝与跨性别医生Dr Beth Upton共用更衣室,此举引发了原始纠纷1。
2025年12月的初次仲裁中,法官驳回了Peggie针对雇主的歧视、间接歧视和报复指控,仅维持骚扰指控成立1。Peggie声称,在2024年1月向工会代表Stuart Fraser提出投诉时,Fraser对其立场表现出"非承诺态度",并未提及可获得的法律支持1。Peggie表示到2024年2月已对工会"失去信心",工会随后在2025年1月拒绝为她提供法律支持1。
本次新仲裁在邓迪进行,主审法官为Melanie Sangster,预计耗时7天1。Peggie称工会因其"性别批评和性别现实主义"信念对其进行了歧视1。她已同时对原仲裁决定提起上诉,预计在明年上半年进行审理1。
Sandie Peggie, an NHS Fife nurse with over 30 years of service, has brought a fresh tribunal claim against the Royal College of Nursing, alleging the union failed to support her adequately during a workplace dispute.1 Peggie previously won a partial victory in December 2025 when a tribunal judge upheld harassment allegations against her employer while dismissing claims of discrimination, indirect discrimination, and retaliation.1 She now contends that the union discriminated against her based on her "gender-critical and gender realist" beliefs.1
The dispute centers on Peggie's refusal to share changing facilities with Dr. Beth Upton, a transgender doctor.1 When Peggie raised her concerns with union representative Stuart Fraser in January 2024, he displayed what she characterizes as a "non-committal attitude" and made no mention of legal support.1 By February 2024, Peggie said she had lost confidence in the RCN, and in January 2025 the union declined to provide her with legal representation.1 The current tribunal hearing, conducted in Dundee before Judge Melanie Sangster, is expected to last seven days.1 Peggie has also filed an appeal of the original tribunal decision, which is anticipated to be heard in the first half of next year.1
