## Resource

Over 30 women have bravely come forward with harrowing accounts of sexual harassment, misogyny, and bullying in Ireland’s National Ambulance Service — many speaking anonymously for fear of retaliation. Their stories reveal a toxic workplace culture where inappropriate behavior was ignored, complaints dismissed, and power imbalances left victims feeling powerless. An internal HSE review from 2021, never made public, echoed these concerns, pointing to a “command and control” environment where leadership failed to hold others accountable. Despite the HSE’s claims of ongoing cultural reforms — including a new independent initiative set to run over six months — many women say their experiences have shattered their trust in the service they once saw as a calling. The message is clear: safety, respect, and dignity must be non-negotiable in any workplace — especially one saving lives.
