COMMISSION ON ELIMINATING HARASSMENT AND ADVANCING EQUALITY
Programs
Program 1 [2020]
Reporting & Response - Hollywood Survey. The Hollywood Commission benchmarks and defines the most urgent issues of harassment and discrimination facing Hollywood workers and develop responsive resources to address and mitigate them. In November 2019, the Commission launched the largest, first-of-its-kind climate survey. With valuable contributions from 9,630 entertainment workers, the survey led to 5 published reports concerning accountability, bias, sexual harassment, and sexual assault, bullying, and the path forward. Reporting Platform: We began developing a unique system for reporting and accountability. Our platform will empower workers who have experienced or witnessed workplace misconduct: workers have the option to create a time-stamped, personal record, safetly and anonymously voice concerns thorugh two-way messaging, or securely report workplace misconduct. In addition to reporting, the platform has a "match" feature that enables workers to submit their reports under the condition that they're not the first or only one complaining about a particular individual. Independent Production Company Initiative. The Hollywood Commission is providing solutions for mid-budget independent production companies lacking adequate resources and internal expertise to address issues of discrimination and harassment. In addition to publishing a library of free resources, including a sample workplace misconduct policy, robust checklists, and worker FAQs, we partnered with the human rights organization Coalition of Immokalee Workers to develop a pilot program to build a comprehensive reporting and response system to address discrimination and harassment.

Independent Production Companies Initiative - Bystander Intervention.

This training serves workers, employers, and productions throughout the industry with content that is tailored to the challenges of showbusiness. Bystander intervention training teaches participants how to identify bullying, sexual harassment, or other unwelcome behavior strategies to support a victim and feel empowered to intervene when appropriate. Over 800 entertainment industry workers have participated in the training in the last 12 months.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2020 – Dec 31, 2020Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$327.9K
