Uber承諾性騷擾投訴將會公開

As it prepares to go public, Uber says it is committing to more transparency around sexual assaults that happen on its platform.

Uber上市在即，公司透露正在努力提高該平臺上發生的性侵行爲的透明度。

In its much-anticipated IPO filing today, the company promised to disclose information about safety incidents that take place in Uber vehicles in the United States.

該公司現在正進行期待已久的上市申請，承諾會披露美國Uber車輛上發生的安全事件的相關信息。

“In 2019, we plan to release a transparency report, which will provide the public with data related to reports of sexual assaults and other safety incidents claimed to have occurred on our platform in the United States,” the company said.

該公司稱：“2019年我們計劃要發佈透明度報告，向公衆提供性侵投訴以及其他據悉發生在美國我們平臺上的安全事件的相關資料。”

The report appears to be pegged to the wave of negative press Uber endured in 2017. First, the company faced a consumer backlash when it was perceived to be blocking a taxi strike at LaGuardia airport as drivers refused to pick up riders in response to President Trump’s ban on travel from eight countries.

該報告與Uber2017年身陷負面報道風波有關，最初是出租車司機們因對特朗普總統針對八個國家人員入境的禁令不滿而拒絕載客，Uber卻被發現在拉瓜迪亞機場有影響出租車罷工的行爲而遭到消費者抵制。

The hashtag #DeleteUber cost the company consumers and simultaneously propelled the growth of its competitor Lyft. Waymo also filed a lawsuit in 2017 accusing Uber of stealing proprietary technology.

推特上刪除Uber的號召使該公司失去了消費者，同時推動了其對手Lyft的發展。Waymo公司（一家研發自動駕駛汽車的公司）也於2017年提起訴訟，指控Uber竊取其專利技術。

But the biggest scandal was related to sexual discrimination and harassment. In 2017, former Uber employee Susan Fowler wrote her now-famous blog post detailing the toxic culture inside of Uber corporate. Later that year, a report came out accusing Uber executives of obtaining the medical records of a rape victim and actively trying to diminish the rape, which was perpetrated by one of its drivers.

但最大的醜聞還是有關性別歧視和性騷擾的。2017年Uber離職員工Susan Fowler寫了一篇現在衆人皆知的博文，文中詳細描述了Uber公司內部的有毒文化。同年晚些時候出現了一篇報道指責Uber高管拿到了一名強姦受害者的病歷並極力掩蓋強姦事實，而罪犯就是該公司的一名司機。

If nothing else, the transparency report signals changing times; the Uber of yore was loathe to admit to abuses on its platform, let alone make them public.

別的不說，這份透明度報告標誌着時代的改變。以前Uber最不願承認平臺上的不良行爲，更別說會將其公開了。
