WORKPLACE REVIEW OF GOVERNOR GENERAL

 More than 50 people from multiple government departments are voluntarily taking part in an external review of Rideau Hall's workplace culture in the wake of claims that Gov. Gen. Julie Payette harassed employees and her second-in-command bullied staff, CBC News has learned.

Interviews are underway and the list of participants is continuing to grow beyond what the government anticipated, according to multiple sources. Some sources CBC News spoke to say they believe the number of participants is much higher than 50.

Sources also tell CBC News the atmosphere at Rideau Hall remains tense. Another five employees have gone on leave, given their final notice or departed altogether last month — some in response to what they see as a toxic workplace culture — say multiple public servants and former employees.
