THE scourge of sexual harassment and misogyny in the workplace was highlighted in a panel discussion at TUC Black Workers’ Conference today.

Michelle Codrington-Rogers, from teaching union NASUWT, chaired the discussion and pointed delegates to a recent TUC report on black women’s experiences of sexual harassment.

“This is about repaying the trust given by people who came forward to give evidence for the report,” she said.
