Insurance market Lloyd's of London has pledged to take action after a"distressing" report highlighting a culture of sexual harassment of women who work there.
It said it would set up a confidential process for reporting inappropriate behaviour and impose sanctions including possible life bans for those found responsible. The pledge comes after a report by Bloomberg last week, drawing on the experiences of 18 women, described a deep-seated culture of sexual harassment at the 331-year-old institution.Lloyd's chief executive John Neal said:"It has been distressing to hear about the experiences of women in the Lloyd's market."No one should be subjected to this sort of behaviour, and if it does happen, everyone has the right to be heard and for those responsible to be held to account.
Any women harassers amongst them?

Now the fire service has been taken over by the 'professional complainers'. He is just Sam now after retiring with 30 years service. Although he works part time in Tesco after the government plundered his pension that he paid a large percentage into. If words are so important to London fire brigade why are they still using the archaic military term brigade and not fire and rescue service a title that is more accurate.
