The president of Japanese tech giant Fujitsu, Hidenori Furuta, has resigned following allegations of inappropriate conduct involving women. The company announced the resignation yesterday, stating Furuta offered to step down after the board of directors became aware of the issue on June 16th. Details of the alleged misconduct have not been disclosed. This incident adds to a series of controversies for Fujitsu, which has recently faced scrutiny over faulty software provided to the UK Post Office, leading to wrongful convictions of postal workers. The company has acknowledged long-standing knowledge of issues with its Horizon system and is in negotiations with the UK government regarding compensation for affected employees, with £1.5 billion in taxpayer funds allocated for payouts. Furuta’s resignation follows a pattern of similar cases in Japan, where executives at major companies like Honda and Eneos have resigned due to inappropriate behavior towards women.
