The Times has used the Freedom of Information Act to discover that the BBC has upheld or partially upheld 33 of 154 bullying and harassment cases over the past two years - but only one person has lost their job. A further 105 grievances were dismissed, while 16 were withdrawn. The figures do not include cases in BBC Studios.
After the "Respect at Work" review, the BBC said it would settle grievances in 30 days, before acknowledging that complex cases could take 60 days. Since that time the average works out at 79 days.
