The news was announced in a company-wide note.
In a company-wide note, new chief people officer Stan Duncan announced that the media company, which owns The New Yorker, Vogue and GQ, will no longer enter into NDAs “that prevent an employee from making a disclosure of conduct they were subjected to that they believe, in good faith, constitutes harassment, discrimination or retaliation.”
“One thing frequently noted is that nondisclosure and non-disparagement agreements impede transparency — and can sometimes allow bad actors to go on and harass or discriminate against others. Our reporting on issues at other companies has prompted us to reconsider the role of NDAs at our own company,” he added.
NewsGuild president Susan DeCarava welcomed today’s announcement, but told WWD it needs to go further. She added that the real test is going to be when they’re back at the bargaining table next week to see whether or not they’re actually going to agree to the proposal to enshrine it in the contract and to make it something that doesn’t happen on a case-by-case basis.
“He has gotten some number of women, dozens, who knows, to sign nondisclosure agreements both for sexual harassment and for gender discrimination in the workplace,” she said, asking him if he would release all of those women.
