The Hollywood Commission, headed by Anita Hill, is teaming up with the Coalition of Immokalee Workers to institute a program to investigate sex abuse allegations and set up a system to help small production companies deal with misconduct allegations and prevent further cases.
“Independent production companies face a number of unique challenges,” the commission said in a statement Tuesday, according to Deadline. “They are often small in size and lack adequate resources and internal expertise to put systems in place that prevent workplace misconduct. In addition, victim reporting options at these companies are limited and at times require victims to bring complaints to their abuser.”
