National Commission Established to Investigate and Combat Workplace Sexual Harassment.
This law establishes a National Commission tasked with conducting a comprehensive, nationwide study of sexual harassment and assault across all U.S. workplaces. The Commission will gather testimony from workers and employers across various sectors to identify gaps in current reporting and accountability systems. Within 18 months, the Commission will provide Congress and the President with a report containing specific recommendations aimed at enhancing employee safety and rights.
Key points
A special commission is created to conduct a comprehensive investigation into workplace sexual harassment, assault, and retaliation across the U.S.
The Commission will study how personal characteristics (e.g., gender, race, income) or employment circumstances (e.g., gig economy, night shifts) increase vulnerability to victimization.
The goal is to evaluate the effectiveness of current reporting and accountability mechanisms and propose new legal and policy solutions for both the public and private sectors.
