吉村知事「パワハラはダメだが反省している。処分の前から打診。能力は間違いない」　“パワハラで処分の前・大阪市経済戦略局長”を「府の特別参与に起用」明かす（FNNプライムオンライン） - Yahoo!ニュース

This page reports that Osaka Governor Yoshimura announced the appointment of the former director of Osaka City's Economic Strategy Bureau as a special advisor to Osaka Prefecture. The director faced salary reduction discipline for power harassment. Yoshimura stated that "power harassment is unacceptable but the person has reflected" and "their ability is undeniable." He explained the position was offered before the harassment finding. The former director engaged in repeated harassment including public scolding and denying staff dignity, but the disciplinary salary reduction was not implemented as his term ends in March 2026.
