New music industry helpline to launch
A helpline for music industry workers facing bullying and harassment will go live in March.
Service providers Help Musicians developed the idea after The Musicians Union received hundreds of reports of workplace bullying and harassment through its SafeSpace service.
The anonymous helpline will offer emotional support, guidance on how to raise and resolve the issue, and advice on rights and avenues for formal action.
Industry leaders, including UK Music CEO Jamie Njoku-Goodwin and Musicians Union Deputy General Secretary Naomi Pohl, have welcomed the service.
“The music industry must take a united approach and keep working to bring about lasting change to ensure every workplace is a truly welcoming and inclusive place for everyone,” Njoku-Goodwin said.
