According to on the small screenthe broadcaster told the Court to adopt “policies to prevent and repress the practice of discriminatory acts”, as a Sport Diversity Committee. Rodrigues declared in the sentence that the measure is “necessary and commendable”.
Then the judge criticized the Globe for the case of discrimination within its premises: “The mission will not be accomplished if, in the absence of its audience, behind the scenes, studios, newsrooms and reports, the Defendant [Globo] not guaranteeing, in fact, to its employees, protection against offensive and discriminatory acts, which violate values so prestigious in its ‘compliance’ manuals and policies to promote diversity, as pointed out in the defense”.
“The importance of creating and maintaining a ‘compliance’ area, with competence to investigate offensive, illegal behavior, is reduced to a minimum when judicial unions regarding the internal procedure adopted are denied”said.
Carina Pereira celebrated the court decision on social media. “I am very happy to have been heard. That for me was very important”declared.
