Eiffel Tower Director Resigns After Incident Involving Female Staff
Patrick Ruivo, director of the Eiffel Tower in Paris, will step down at the end of the year following an incident where female employees were asked to make themselves invisible during a visit by a group of conservative Hindus. An independent investigation concluded that the exclusion of female staff was unacceptable due to poor management and shortcomings. Although Ruivo stated he did not issue the direct order, he accepted responsibility for their absence from the event. The decision led to protests, including a one-day strike by staff on September 7, two days after the controversial visit.
