£50k per annum to advise on pronouns!
"Ms Bumba said her role was as a “support aid” to the NHS and dealt with issues such as “staff [who] are not sure what the correct pronouns for someone are.”"
"I’m still confused how a mid-20s woman with almost no experience got a job paying around £50K. Is it the magic of gender that gave her the experience? Is she someone’s child on the Board?"
NHS allowed transgender doctor to use female facilities on advice of equalities officer
Instead of talking to lawyers, managers consulted human rights lead who said Dr Beth Upton had a ‘right’ to access single-sex spaces
Esther Davidson, Ms Peggie’s line manager, testified that she had raised the issue on Ms Peggie’s behalf, but had been told by Ms Bumba that Dr Upton had a “right” to access female single-sex spaces as the doctor “identifies as a woman”. Ms Davidson then told Ms Peggie that nothing could be done to “exclude Beth from the changing room” and suggested the nurse use alternative facilities. Legal experts have said that Ms Bumba’s advice was incorrect, as NHS Fife had a legal obligation to provide single-sex spaces under the Workplace (Health, Safety, and Welfare) Regulations 1992. Deleted social media posts show that Ms Bumba was hired to the senior role after graduating in 2020 and then working for two years as a Covid contact tracer.
