Surveillance photographs taken of a Lidl worker who has sued, claiming she injured her back at work, show she is leading an active lifestyle, the supermarket has contended in the High Court.

Ewa Ledzinska, aged 42, who lives in Kildare town, has sued her former employer Lidl Ireland, claiming she sustained a severe back injury and is in constant back pain as a result of her working conditions at the Newbridge Lidl branch, issues which she says began in 2021 when she lifted a 25kg box as she prepared the special offers aisle.
