埃菲尔铁塔因性别歧视事件员工罢工

埃菲尔铁塔员工因一场涉及性别歧视的访问安排而罢工。19月8日周一，运营公司SETE按照印度教BAPS精神运动的要求，将女性员工从与约100名该组织男性访客的互动中排除，引发了员工的抗议。1

这一决定立即遭到谴责。巴黎社会党市长Emmanuel Gregoire表示这"不可接受"，并强调"女男平等永远不会在我们的历史纪念碑脚下或这座城市的任何地方结束"。1SETE公司负责人Ariel Weil随后承认错误，在社交媒体上声明"任何宗教动机都无法证明基于性别或任何其他歧视性考虑的区别对待是正当的"，并表示将"吸取必要的教训"。1由于罢工，埃菲尔铁塔周一全天关闭，计划周二重新开放。1

Employees at the Eiffel Tower went on strike on Monday, September 8, 2026, following the exclusion of female staff during a visit by a Hindu religious group 1. The tower remained closed throughout the day and was scheduled to reopen on Tuesday 1.

The walkout was triggered when the operating company SETE agreed to restrict female workers from interacting with approximately 100 male visitors from the BAPS spiritual movement, a Hindu organization that had requested conditions limiting interactions with women for their visit 1. SETE leadership acknowledged the decision was improper. Ariel Weil, the company's head, stated on X that "no religious motivation can justify differentiation based on gender or any other discriminatory consideration" 1, adding that the organization would "draw the necessary lessons" from the incident 1.

Paris Mayor Emmanuel Gregoire condemned the arrangement as "unacceptable," declaring that "gender equality will never end at the foot of our historical monument or anywhere in this city" 1. The Eiffel Tower attracts approximately 7 million visitors annually 1.
