An AFL employee has resigned following complaints from a number of women about inappropriate behaviour.
The Herald Sun reports that after one complaint was made about the man, a number of other women came forward to share similar incidents.
Tanya Hosch from the AFL told the paper:
“Our organisation’s responsibility is to provide an environment that is inclusive and free from any form of discrimination,” she said.
“We know that people reporting inappropriate behaviour with confidence that they will be taken seriously and responded to fairly and thoroughly is crucial to us meeting these standards.”
The latest resignation comes after the AFL also forced out senior execs Simon Lethlean, Richard Simkiss and Ali Fahour earlier in the year.
