A third-party investigation has confirmed that Yokohama Mayor Takeharu Yamanaka engaged in workplace harassment, including verbal abuse and prohibiting subordinates from entering his office. The mayor, who has been in office since 2021, was found to have yelled at and insulted his subordinates, calling them 'morons' and 'human scum'. The investigation, conducted by three lawyers, also found that the mayor lacked awareness of human rights. The city has been urged to establish an ordinance to prevent such harassment by senior officials in the future.
