The chief of the Eiffel Tower will step down at the end of the year following an uproar over women staff being removed during a visit by a Hindu religious group. An internal investigation into the incident found “operational flaws and shortcomings” in the organisation of the visit. The findings have prompted the Eiffel Tower chief to announce their departure after the controversy surrounding the treatment of female employees during the group’s visit. The incident drew attention to how the visit was managed and the decision to remove women staff. The internal probe specifically identified shortcomings in operational arrangements, while the chief’s departure is expected to take effect at the end of the year following the controversy. (PC: X)
