Google employees to launch social media campaign on sexual harassment policies after previous protests brought 'no meaningful gains for worker equity'

Google employees, who walked out of offices around the world in November in protest of sexual harassment policies, are extending their critiques to the rest of the industry. The organizers are launching a social media campaign Tuesday to educate the public and protest the issue of forced arbitration by tech companies.
Google employees walked out of offices worldwide in November after the New York Times reported that former Android leader Andy Rubin was allegedly paid a $90 million exit package after credible sexual assault allegations had been brought against him. In response to protesters' demands, Google told employees that forced arbitration in cases of sexual harassment and assault claims will be made optional. But organizers still feel this didn't go far enough, they wrote in the Medium post.
