A TOUCH TOO MUCH, TED?
Ted Baker has appointed lawyers to probe harassment claims made against boss Ray Kelvin.
The fashion firm said law firm Herbert Smith Freehills would hold an “independent external investigation” into accusations Kelvin enforced a “hugging culture”. He is also accused of asking young female staff to “sit on his knee, cuddle him or let him massage their ears”.
Ted Baker also reported a 0.2% sales dip in the 16 weeks to December, blaming unseasonal weather and faltering consumer confidence.
