Veiligheid voor iedereen
Sexual assault and domestic violence affect all genders and communities around the globe.
One in 3 women worldwide has experienced sexual assault and/or domestic violence in her lifetime. Promoting global awareness and partnering with leading organizations will aid in the fight against this abuse.
Promoting global awareness
We gebruiken de schaal en zichtbaarheid van Uber om bewustzijn en voorlichting een boost te geven en om seksueel en huiselijk geweld voor miljoenen mensen wereldwijd te helpen voorkomen.
We hebben $ 5 miljoen toegezegd voor preventie-initiatieven
We besteden de komende vijf jaar vijf miljoen dollar aan samenwerkingsverbanden voor programma’s rondom preventie. De eerste organisaties die een deel van het bedrag ontvangen, zijn partners als het National Network to End Domestic Violence, NO MORE en Raliance. Via deze partners en deze financiële bijdrage dragen we ook bij aan de financiering van projecten voor achtergestelde gemeenschappen waarvoor vaak het minste geld wordt vrijgemaakt.
We delen belangrijke informatie met Uber-partners en passagiers
According to experts, increasing awareness can help prevent sexual assault and domestic violence. In collaboration with partner organizations and our Safety Advisory Board, we have developed awareness and prevention messaging—and are informing millions of riders and drivers around the world through our in-app technology.
We bieden een ondersteunende omgeving
We hebben ons aangesloten bij de Corporate Alliance to End Partner Violence. Daarmee hebben we nieuwe interne beloften en procedures ontwikkeld en geïmplementeerd, zodat we medewerkers die met dit wereldwijde probleem te maken krijgen, de juiste hulp kunnen bieden.
Using technology to enhance safety for riders and drivers
Technology can help increase accountability and transparency, such as pre-trip driver and car information sent to riders, a 2-way feedback system, and features like Real-Time ID Check, which helps verify that the right driver is behind the wheel. A top priority is continuing to invest in this technology and develop new products that contribute to the safety of everyone who drives and rides using the app.
Partnering with leading organizations
We joined the Corporate Alliance to End Partner Violence in order to develop and adopt updated internal commitments and procedures that appropriately assist employees who might need our help in this global epidemic.
We choose not to remain silent but to join other leading organizations pioneering efforts in this area.
