LONDON—Oxfam, one of Britain’s biggest charities, on Friday condemned the behavior of some former staff in Haiti after The Times reported that aid workers had paid for sex while on a mission to help those affected by the devastating 2010 earthquake.

“The behavior of some members of Oxfam staff uncovered in Haiti in 2011 was totally unacceptable, contrary to our values and the high standards we expect of our staff,” Oxfam said in a statement.
