University College London tried to gag me over two-year ‘harassment’ fight, scientist claims (Evening Standard)
McAllister Olivarius client Dr Emma Chapman spoke with the Evening Standard about her experience at University College London, where she experienced harassment, made a formal complaint against the university, and was then asked to sign a non-disclosure agreement while settling with the university.
Dr Chapman refused to sign the non-disclosure agreement, saying, “I felt it was a moral obligation — it didn’t sit right with me to sit in silence while campaigning that we needed to break the silence.”
Georgina Calvert-Lee of McAllister Olivarius said Dr Chapman’s case could encourage others in her position to challenge confidentiality clauses.
