Ms Kalam entered the force in 2008, joining the Firearms Operation Unit in 2012. She successfully sued the force for harassment, sex discrimination and victimisation, winning a total of £820,720.
She said she had repeatedly warned the force about some officers prior to bringing the proceedings. Behaviours she listed within the firearms unit, that she said were either raised directly with the force or which were referenced during tribunal proceedings, included:
Being stripped down to her underwear by colleagues during a training exercise. A male officer pushing her down with his foot on the back of her neck while she was doing press-ups, before telling her having breasts "does not mean you cannot do a press-up".
A male officer flashing his genitals to her while he was exercising on a treadmill
Colleagues repeatedly watching and sharing pornographic images of women during work time
Officers using social media groups to share sexist, pornographic, misogynistic and racist imagery and comments - termed workplace "banter" by the force, Ms Kalam said.
