‘They need to be on the front foot’: Why Nine must address workplace report at its Upfront
With Nine Entertainment set to present its Upfronts on Thursday afternoon in Sydney, it is not yet known if the company will address its workplace report released last week.
The bombshell report – issued by third-party consultancy firm Intersection – offered up 22 recommendations to improve the workplace, with acting CEO Matt Stanton since telling staff that “active investigations” are underway, while a law firm has also reportedly been engaged to look into allegations of misconduct.
Appearing on a new episode of the Mumbrellacast, Pure Public Relations founder, Phoebe Netto, said it is vital that the report is addressed by its leadership team at the Upfronts.
“I don’t see how they can not,” she said.
As a current nine employee I will admit the findings were not a shock. What a majority of my colleagues and I want is clear transparency and those who have got away with toxic and illegal practices to be removed from the workplace. We are just hoping it will not be swept under the rug.
Wonder if that will also include toxic ex-employees
