Photo: GoogleFive Radio New Zealand employees have been accused of sexual harassment, sexual misconduct or sexism in the last five years – three of whom have left the broadcaster as a result. The other two people were no longer working for RNZ at the time the allegations were raised with management. No changes have been made to RNZ's sexual harassment policy changes as a result of the complaints. The Herald revealed last year that a senior RNZ staff member was stood down – and then left the broadcaster - after allegations of sexual harassment. RNZ said this week in a statement it did "certainly hope" that staff felt safe to report harassment or misconduct in the workplace.
