Lloyd Odain said he felt ‘grossly let down by the prison and probation service’.
A probation officer who quit his job after being subjected to monkey chants and racial abuse has won a payout.
These included the person making “making monkey chants” towards Mr Odain while he was talking to colleagues. But the settlement, the value of which has not been disclosed, does not include an admission of liability or a commitment from HMPPS to review its policy around how contractors are treated. He said: “There was no acknowledgement whatsoever of a wrongdoing, I felt a lot of it was based on discrimination.“I just felt so disappointed . I felt I couldn’t tolerate it.”
Citing problems with culture in the probation service, he called for change and said policies that are already in place should be properly used to protect contract workers from racism in the workplace. “The thought of dealing with more racism, and having no support, left me with no option but to give up the job I enjoyed and was good at.“I hope that, by exposing the horrendous treatment I suffered, HMPPS learn lessons from this case.
