British lawmakers have called for a ban on banks and financial firms misusing non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) to silence victims of sexual harassment and abuse, aiming to end an era of impunity for predators and bullies in the workplace. This demand follows a bullying inquiry and reports of sexism still being rife within the City of London, with efforts to tackle the issue moving at a snail's pace. An influential committee of MPs has also proposed legal mandates for the inclusion of pay scales in job adverts and a ban on asking for employment history, as part of efforts to address systemic sexism and inequality. Additionally, there are reports of HR departments protecting sexist bosses from consequences, further highlighting the need for reform in the finance sector to cover up abuse and combat finance sector misogyny.
