Summary
A transgender corrections officer is getting a major win after the Department of Corrections apologized and settled a discrimination claim — he was denied male prisoner searches after coming out as a man, sparking workplace hostility and a tribunal case. The settlement includes a formal apology, new training, and a policy change allowing all staff to perform duties aligned with their gender identity. The officer, proud of standing up for his rights, hopes this sets a precedent for inclusion and respect for transgender people in public service.
