If we are to end gendered violence at work, we need to end the misuse of NDAs.
Non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) are commonly used in the settlement of workplace sexual harassment cases. NDAs enable harassers to continue with impunity and allow employers to hide health and safety risks from their employees. It's not good enough.
We need to ban all non-disclosure agreements in cases of gendered violence at work, other than those requested by victim-survivors to protect their own confidentiality. We need to end the silence.
Join us at WRAW Fest for a Feminism at the Hall discussion and hear about the impacts of NDAs and how we'll end them.
Special guests:
- Liberty Sanger - Principal, Maurice Blackburn Lawyers
- Dr. Julie Macfarlane - co-founder of the global Can't Buy My Silence campaign to ban NDAs
- Sascha Peldova-McClelland - Senior Legal and Industrial Officer, ACTU
