We are men and women. We are senior and junior. We are lawyers and economists and academics. And we say it’s time to end sexual harassment in our field.
Let's make it the norm to speak up about sexual misconduct in your workplace and to hear those who do. You aren't alone and we won't judge those who share their stories.
This is a nice effort.
I too, have been sexually harassed in a legal workplace, although my experience actually predated my time as a lawyer. I was young and broke and was temporarily working under the table for a law firm; I was too scared to say anything to my boss about it.
More than 550 members of the antitrust bar have committed to ending sexual harassment in our field! We have the momentum. Let’s keep pushing until everyone feels safe #MeToo#metoolaw#antitrust
Sexual harassment and bullying are far too prevalent in the bar today. In this noble profession, it's *imperative* that we do better. Proud of our antitrust community members for taking a stand today. #metoo#metoolaw@adiveland@BrandyWags@ChristaLaser@cabs_wilson
More than 550 members of the antitrust community have now signed this statement. Together, we can make it possible for all members of our community to study and work with dignity.
An International Bar Association survey found that 1 in 3 female respondents and 1 in 14 male respondents had been sexually harassed in the workplace. The antitrust community says, “No more.”
