Lloyd's of London fines insurer Atrium over initiation games
Lloyd 's of London has fined a member firm £1m due to some male managers' Heavy Drinking , initiation games and sexual remarks about female staff.
Atrium Underwriters admitted charges relating to bullying and misconduct during annual 'boys' Nights Out '.
Some of the inappropriate behaviour was led, participated in and condoned by two senior leaders, Lloyd 's found.
Atrium said it accepted the ruling, was sorry for the hurt caused and would ensure it Never Happened again.
The fine of £1,050,000 is the largest ever imposed by Lloyd 's independent disciplinary committee and its first for non-financial misconduct.
