More than 1/2 of the working women in the U.S. have experienced harassment in the workplace. We want to help stop that and put in place a stopgap measure to prevent harassment in the workplace.
Why is this important?
Recently in Connecticut, legislators passed the "Time's Up Act" which is all about preventing and combating sexual harassment in the workplace. However, in California, we don't have a bill like that. Although, Senator Holly J. Mitchell introduced a legislation that would require companies with 5 or more employees to take sexual harassment prevention training, ensuring that all workers know their rights.
