Nine staff have been advised that an external independent review into workplace culture will be handed down at the end of October.
The Australian reports Nine’s people and culture director Vanessa Morley sent an email to staff thanking those who had “contributed to this process”, and acknowledged the “courage you have displayed in doing so.”
First announced in May, the review by Intersection, an independent, external organisation specialising in trauma-informed workplace cultural transformation, was originally due to complete its report by the end of July.
It was commissioned after allegations emerged of sexual harassment, bullying and complaints about a “toxic” environment in the newsroom. It was also open to input from ex-employees who departed within the past two years.
Nine CEO Mike Sneesby previously said Nine’s culture could only be delivered by acknowledging the issues of the past, recognising the changes in present, and focus on the future.
“We all have a role to play in making Nine the organisation we want it to be,” he said in June.
“Your participation in the review is completely anonymous.
“We will share the findings of the review once it is completed.”
