Last week, the Guardian’s City editor, Anna Isaac, reported that more than a dozen women claimed to have been victims of various forms of sexual misconduct at the Confederation of British Industry (CBI). She tells Hannah Moore about what her findings mean for the UK’s most prominent business group.
In a statement, the CBI said: “It is already clear to all of us that there have been serious failings in how we have acted as an organisation. We apologise to the victims of this organisational failure, including those impacted by the revulsion we have all felt at hearing their stories. Nobody should feel unsafe in their workplace.”
The CBI has begun a “root and branch” review of its culture.
