Hey Google: Stop Retaliation and Scare Tactics Against Workers

What has happened to many Googlers recently can happen to any of us.

Google is blatantly and illegally using its power to retaliate against those who speak out about unethical projects and workplace issues like discrimination and harassment. And in many instances it’s using its sham of an HR investigation process to hide its activities and harass whistleblowers.

Here are stories of Google contingent and full-time employees who have recently been retaliated against:

[1] Claire Stapleton and Meredith Whittaker were pushed out of Google for organizing the Women's March in response to unchecked sexual harassment by Google executives: http://www.pbs.org/wnet/amanpour-and-company/video/claire-stapleton-and-meredith-whittaker-google-walkouts-htzi/

[2] The Thanksgiving Four were fired under false claims for protesting unethical projects at Google: https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-50554931

[3] Chelsey Glasson witnessed and experienced pregnancy discrimination, and was retaliated against for reporting the discrimination: https://www.fastcompany.com/90414895/exclusive-i-left-google-because-of-pregnancy-discrimination

[4] Henry Ramirez & Jorge Nelson, two contingent workers in Google UK, were terminated for protesting poor working conditions: https://caiwu.org.uk/wp/google/

PLEASE SIGN THIS PETITION TO SHOW GOOGLE THAT YOU STAND WITH THE WORKERS ABOVE WHO HAVE BEEN RETALIATED AGAINST AND THAT SUCH BEHAVIOR WON’T BE TOLERATED.
