Alda Simoes, a former sales assistant at luxury furniture company De Sedes in Harrods, won a £16,000 employment appeal after being sacked for complaining about working 14 consecutive days, which is illegal. Despite the court ruling in her favor, she has yet to receive the compensation and has faced significant personal hardship, including losing her home and dealing with depression. Her case has set a precedent for workers’ rights, highlighting the importance of fair labor practices. De Sedes has since relocated and has not commented on the matter.
