Google staff protest in support of company women

Hundreds of Google company employees will be getting out today to protest the treatment this firm has received to women.

Workers are expected to seek a change in the way the allegations of sexual misconduct are handled.

Google Chief Executive Sundar Pichai said he would support staff rights to protest.

I understand the anger and frustration that many of you feel”, he said in an email sending to all workers.

Anger in the firm erupted last week, when it was found that a high profile official received $90 million reward after he quit his job, even though Google said charges against him for sexual misconduct were “reliable”.

Andy Rubin, known as the creator of the Android operating system on mobile phones, has denied the charges.
