Paris officials investigate an allegation that women working at the Eiffel Tower were asked to step out of sight during a weekend visit by a Hindu religious delegation. Union representatives say female staff were told to leave their workstations as the delegation moved through an area of the site.
According to Reuters, Diane Davoine, a union representative, says men took the women’s places while the delegation passed. Japan Today similarly reports that female employees were asked to step out of view during the visit. The outlets describe the same core claim but do not provide details on any formal outcome, investigation timeline, or whether Eiffel Tower management or the delegation made a statement in response.
The matter is framed as an issue of workplace treatment tied to how staff are arranged during visits. Officials in Paris have not been reported as confirming the allegations, and further information is expected as the investigation proceeds.
