Thousands of Google employees across the world have staged a stop-work action in protest at the internet giant’s response to sexual harassment, gender and racial discrimination.

Workers in New York, Tokyo, London, Dublin, Singapore, Zurich, Berlin and Haifa took part in the Walkout for Real Change, calling for “a commitment to end pay and opportunity inequity”, a “publicly disclosed sexual harassment transparency report”, and the appointment of “an employee representative to the board”. The walkout is likely the largest industrial action in the history of the tech industry, a sector with widespread exploitation and discrimination.
