Ride-hailing firm Uber accepts Holder report criticising company and may ask CEO Kalanick to step aside

Uber Technologies directors have voted unanimously to adopt all recommendations from a report stemming from allegations of sexual harassment at the company and other employee concerns.

The board adopted a series of recommendations from former U.S Attorney General Eric Holder following a sprawling, multi-month investigation into Uber’s cultures and practices.

The meeting is a pivotal moment for the world’s most valuable venture-backed private company, which may also decide to ask colourful boss Travis Kalanick to temporarily step away from the ride-hailing firm.
