A worker traumatised by bad language in the office has won a compensation claim.
The man was treated for anxiety and depression after his bosses told him get his "arse" and "bum" on a seat, a tribunal has heard.
Sivanadian Perananthasivam has been awarded medical expenses and workers' compensation for almost three months off the job because of emotional distress.
The bad language was part of the Australian vernacular and would not offend the ordinary worker, the hearing was told.
