High-profile cases of sexual harassment in the workplace have made headlines in recent years, from Hollywood to Capitol Hill.
A new series from Hearst Connecticut Media finds workplace sexual harassment and abuse is pervasive across Connecticut. This hour, we talk with one of the reporters behind the series.
We also hear about the state’s Time’s Up Act, a new law against workplace discrimination that went into effect October 1, 2019.
And later, Connecticut Public Radio health reporter Nicole Leonard joins us with the latest on measles in our state. A fourth case has been confirmed, this time in a school-aged child.
Are you worried about vaccination rates in your child’s school?
