The Issue at Hand

The problem of sexual harassment in the workplace is becoming a common issue in both high-profile cases like Hollywood and in more common 9-to-5 work environments. As more people come forth with their stories, one would think that the issue to cease or at least lawmakers would create new systems for which victims could come forth sooner than later. As Hollywood continues to attract more and more dreamers, the issue of sexual harassment doesn't seem to be something that will be resolved in the shortcomings. It seems that not until a highly successful executive is publicly punished for their crimes will both victims and supporters of victims see real justice served when it comes to sexual harassment in Hollywood.
