Star Wars health and safety boss with MBE for ‘cultural awareness’ sues after sacking for calling colleague ‘white man’

A STAR Wars health and safety boss with an MBE for cultural awareness is suing after being sacked for calling a colleague “white man”.

Sadi Khan, who worked on The Acolyte, was the first woman of colour employed as a head of health and safety on a Walt Disney series.

The single mum from Nottingham is suing the production company for unfair dismissal after being sacked for referring to a colleague as a “white man”.

She worked for Blue Stockings, which is owned by the Disney subsidiary Lucasfilm.

She is suing Blue Stockings for unfair dismissal, sex and race discrimination, harassment and victimisation after she was dismissed for gross misconduct in November 2022.

Ms Khan also worked as the health and safety co-ordinator on Disney’s controversial remake of Snow White.

The mum, who is of Pakistani heritage, claims she was sacked after blowing the whistle on unsafe working conditions.

She was awarded an MBE in 2018 for cultural and religious awareness and training and services to the vulnerable.

Ms Khan told an employment tribunal in Reading: “If it was Tom Cruise saying they have to take health and safety seriously, they’d have listened to him, but they took no notice of me,” The Times reported.

She claimed there was a “campaign” against her.

The tribunal heard Ms Khan was sacked for referring to a bloke who was hired in a more senior role as a “white man” and for “making inappropriate comments” to her colleagues.

But she insisted she said it in a “factual” way, and didn’t mean for it to be derogatory.

Blue Stockings denies the allegations, and the case continues.
