Hello,
I just signed the petition, “財務省は、セクハラ告発の女性に名乗り出ることを求める調査方法を撤回してください!!.” This is another case of Japan’s male dominated society revealing its true nature despite cosmetic attempts to promote women in the workplace, most of which are really designed to combat the shortage of workers rather than genuine attempts at equality. This “investigation” into the charges of sexual harassment by one of the Ministry’s top bureaucrats seems designed to discourage victims from coming forward, although it does not “require” victims to give their real names. More significantly it requires them to report cases to a lawyer appointed by the Ministry, which will deter Ministry employees who may also be victims from coming forward. Here’s the link: |
