Zelda Perkins, having signed an NDA after being abused by Harvey Weinstein, lived with its haunting impact for years. Following her groundbreaking work as a campaigner against such agreements, the UK government has taken decisive action by announcing new measures to prevent employers from silencing victims. These rules protect all workers, including those in the gig economy, ensure that only complainants can request NDAs, and eliminate non-disparagement clauses in abuse cases. Perkins expresses her excitement, seeing this as a major step towards securing justice for victims.
Zelda Perkins agreed to a non-disclosure agreement at 24, which haunted her for decades due to its suffocating power over her ability to speak out.
The UK government announced measures prohibiting bosses from using NDAs to silence abused employees, representing significant progress in the fight against abuse.
Perkins believes the new measures will push abusers to change their behavior because they will have no place to hide anymore.
The Can't Buy My Silence campaign aims to address the misuse of NDAs in cases of abuse, advocating for protections especially in the gig economy.
