Lost wages are all fair enough, but how on earth do you quantify the emotional distress suffered from a anxiety attacks from being forced to have a birthday party? Of course, there'll be a search for precedent, but who comes up with the initial awards that create those precedents.
While I wouldn't personally foist a celebration on the man—or anybody really—anxiety issues that prevent an employee from interacting normally with fellow staff can only work to the detriment of that person's career prospects; fairly or not, some of your colleagues are going to think you're weird.
