A recent report released on Wednesday highlights inconsistencies in the application of workplace misconduct prevention plans throughout the federal judiciary. The congressionally directed report, conducted by the Federal Judicial Center and the National Academy of Public Administration, suggests 34 reforms to better protect the judiciary's approximately 30,000 employees, including clerks. Key recommendations include awarding monetary damages to employees who are victims of workplace misconduct by judges and increasing transparency in how courts address worker complaints. The study also found a lack of a data collection system and that about a quarter of courts' websites lack required information on employment disputes. These findings build on changes made following the #MeToo movement.

Sexual harassment has no place in our society, but especially the federal Judiciary whom we should hold to the highest standards of ethical conduct and integrity. It's time we crack down on workplaces that still foster impunity for this horrible behavior. https://t.co/Zca6Qrw3HU
