Uber edges closer to promise of data on sex assaults in vehicles


Uber Technologies Inc moved one step closer to releasing data on the prevalence of sexual assault in the US involving drivers and customers of its app with a report outlining how it will categorize incidents of sexual harassment, misconduct and assault. 

The 53-page report released Nov 12, written by experts at the National Sexual Violence Resource Centre and the Urban Institute, offers 21 distinct categories, from “staring or leering” to “non-consensual penetration”. The taxonomy will help the global ride-hailing company to clearly record reports of sexual misconduct.
