Almost 90 percent of surveyed film, TV and stage performers have experienced workplace discrimination, says a new report.
“Violence against women and trans and non-binary professionals takes many forms in the work environment: harassment, sexual harassment, segregation, wage discrimination, hiring restrictions, glass ceiling, just to name a few. We urgently needed a clear and precise diagnosis in order to promote and adopt specific policies,” IFA vp Alicia Dogliotti said in a statement.
The report added tackling sexual harassment in the film, TV and performing arts workplaces is complicated by a lack of a consensus in Latin America among different countries on its legal recognition. In Mexico, as an example, just over half or 54 percent of respondents said they had suffered sexual harassment in film, TV or performing arts workplaces.
