Recommendation 34
34
Paragraph: 166
Widespread misuse of non-disclosure agreements silences harassment victims and protects perpetrators.
Conclusion
The widespread misuse of non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) in sexual harassment cases is shocking. NDAs have the effect of silencing the victim of harassment when they are forced out of an organisation, while protecting the perpetrator and leaving them free to continue their career.
