51 new media are taking action this January 21 against sexual harassment and sexist acts, on the initiative of the association Pour les Femmes Dans les Médias (PFDM). This association, born seven years ago, had managed to unite around it last year some heavyweights of the audiovisual and press sector, such as the owners of France Televisions and France Media World, the groups TF1, Canal +, M6 and and NRJ or the president of Lagardère Active.
This year, dozens of new media will also make commitments, in particular that of informing employees on the definition of harassment and the penalties incurred, the establishment of a listening device, or even sharing of good practices.
The ceremony will take place at the Ministry of Culture, under the aegis of Minister Franck Riester and in the presence of the presidents of the PFDM association Laurence Bachman and Bouchera Azzouz. 20 Minutes , signatory of this charter, will be represented by its president, Frédéric Daruty.
