Andrew “Twiggy” Forrest has issued a statement warning all staff at Fortescue Metals Group (FMG) after a class action alleging sexual harassment was filed against the company yesterday.
In the class action, several women alleged they were raped, sexually assaulted and stalked at FMG remote mining sites.
In an email sent to all staff, Mr Forrest said: “Anyone who thinks this behaviour has a place at Fortescue is in the wrong company.”
“Losing your job is the beginning of the consequences, not the end,” Mr Forrest said in the email.
“We first learned the detail of these allegations through the media. They are serious. They are disturbing. They concern behaviour that has no place at Fortescue.”
