The Screen Actors Guild has called for an end to private meetings in “high-risk locations” in the wake of a string of sexual assault allegations in Hollywood.
Sag-Aftra, the labor union for actors in film and television, has issued a guideline calling on producers and executives to avoid arranging meetings in hotel rooms or private residences.
The move follows on from a string of accusations against a number of major industry players, including Harvey Weinstein who has been accused of assaulting women in hotel rooms.
It’s part of a new initiative by the union to confront and help eradicate harassment and assault in the industry.
