A woman car insurance worker has been sacked after explicit photos of herself appeared on an adult website.
Michelle Batowski was on sick leave from her job as a financial advisor for motor insurance firm Legal & General when a colleague spotted her appearing partially undressed on an internet site.
Managers at the Cardiff-based company were appalled and terminated the £15,000-a-year worker's contract after it was revealed she was off work with stress following a road accident in November 2005.
A spokesman for the car insurance providers said, "We were made aware of Mrs Batowski's outside work, which came as a surprise given her long-term sickness absence.
"As a result, she has been dismissed from the company.
"If any of our employees wish to undertake additional part-time work, our employment contract stipulates they need to first obtain consent in writing from their manager."
Mrs Batowski's modelling took off after her husband snapped some photos and sent them into a lads' mag. She claims she did not receive any payment for work done while she was off sick and plans to take Legal & General to an employment tribunal.
The disgruntled woman car insurance worker told the media, "I'm not the sort of person who goes out to get drunk every Friday and Saturday night and modelling is my release from ordinary life.
"I loved my job and I'm not ashamed of what I've done."
