We fight to unsilence workers
The numbers don’t lie. This is why we fight.
This is the reality of the American workplace
Toxic behavior happens at work
Survivors are bound by their contracts from talking about it
Sometimes an NDA is so strict you are not even allowed to tell anyone you are bound by an NDA.
Watch to learn how Forced Arbitration clauses and NDAs can impact you!
NDAs can be imposed at any time
However, these are common occurrences when you may be asked to sign an NDA:
When you interview for a job
On your first day of work
In exchange for a raise
In exchange for severance or a letter of recommendation
"For decades, forced arbitration and NDAs have been used to drive people of color, women and other disenfranchised groups from their jobs and their chosen careers.
Lift Our Voices is fighting to ensure that we stop this vicious cycle of toxicity and create a safer, more respectful workplace for everyone.”
