Prohibiting Arbitration for Sexual Assault and Ensuring Fair Harassment Dispute Procedures.
This act aims to protect employees by preventing companies from forcing arbitration in sexual assault cases. For sexual harassment claims, the law introduces new rules to ensure fairer arbitration proceedings, granting victims more rights and avenues for seeking justice.
Key points
Employees who have experienced sexual assault will no longer be forced into arbitration; they can pursue their claims in court.
For sexual harassment claims, arbitration agreements must meet new conditions, such as allowing public discussion of the claim, legal representation, and a written decision.
The act limits arbitration fees and legal costs to make it easier for victims to pursue their claims.
