Uber Technologies Inc plans to outline diversity goals and publish the results of a sexual harassment investigation over the coming weeks, part of a commitment to fix its corporate culture. 

A report on workforce demographics, which will be Uber's first, is expected by the end of this month, Liane Hornsey, the company's senior vice-president for human resources, said on a conference call with reporters. Releasing such data has become common practice for technology companies in recent years.
