On the September 5th edition of Your Call, we’ll discuss sexual harassment.
More than 10,000 sexual harassment charges were filed in 2013. But one survey found that 70 percent of women who experience sexual harassment never report it. Despite growing awareness and prevention measures in recent decades, many still fear retaliation and job loss. From Fox News to UC Berkeley, how are major institutions and corporations dealing with sexual harassment? How can we prevent it and improve protections? It’s Your Call with Rose Aguilar and you.
