Erin Wade, founder of restaurant empire Homeroom, explains how their color-coded harassment reporting protocol works and why it reduced severe workplace incidents.
“It actually like dramatically reduced the red, the sort of highest level incidents. And the reason is like almost no one just walks into a restaurant and just sticks their hand up someone's shirt.
