Sexual harassment in the news media industry is a pervasive and global problem. A 2013-2014 global survey found that 48% of female journalists had experienced some form of sexual harassment in their job; 83% said they did not report the incidents.

The Toolkit includes: practical guide for media employers and employees; sample sexual harassment policy; sample sexual harassment survey; sample communications templates.
