A manager at Carlton has quit after being referred to to the AFL integrity unit over complaints from staff, according to The Age.
The integrity unit reportedly was confident it was a matter the Blues could handle internally, though confirmed they had been in contact with the club.
The Blues confirmed to The Age on Thursday the person in question has resigned from the club.

"While the club is not in a position to provide commentary on individual employees, the club wants to make clear this matter is in no way related to any gender-based misconduct and any such insinuations are inaccurate and misleading," a statement last week read.
"The club's first priority is, and always will be, its people and this is at the forefront on the club's handling of this matter."
The manager involved was not stood down, but was reportedly coincidentally on scheduled leave.
It has been a turbulent year for Carlton on and off the field, starting 0-4 and losing to wooden spoon favourites Richmond.
Meanwhile former president Luke Sayers departed after a lewd photo scandal in the summer.
