    Zelda Perkins photographed at her home near Salisbury. Perkins, who worked for Harvey Weinstein as an assistant in the 1990s, signed a non-disclosure agreement in 1998 after her colleague Rowena Chiu alleged that Weinstein had attempted to rape her.
    The NDA legally prohibited her from speaking to anyone about the incident — including Chiu.
    But in 2017, after nearly two decades of silence, she broke that agreement, becoming one of the first women to publicly speak out about allegations of Weinstein's sexual misconduct. Perkins is calling on the legal profession to ban the use of NDAs in cases of workplace harassment.

  • 'Things are changing so fast': the benefits and dangers of robots in the UK workplace. Siemens’ Congleton factory in Cheshire.

    'Things are changing so fast': the benefits and dangers of robots in the UK workplace. Siemens’ Congleton factory in Cheshire.
    Siemens digital factory: Printed circuit boards awaiting installation , on a trolley inside the Siemens production facility at Siemens House in Congleton . “We are under the threat of closure all the time,” says Andrew Peters without a hint of fear in his voice. As though repeating himself for the hundredth time, the managing director of Siemens’ Congleton factory in Cheshire explains his workers are battling for survival. Competition in this historic market town at the foothills of the Pennines, where lush green hills rise to the craggy moorlands of the Peak District, is increasingly global. “Everyone is in a race to make their products as efficient and productive as possible. If we didn’t have a drive on productivity we wouldn’t be in business.” This particular plant turns out more than a million motor drives a year, used to control the speed of airport luggage belts including those at Heathrow and Gatwick. Production here is unrecognisable from a decade ago before the robots arrived, emblematic of industry across the country. Over the past decade, the metronome of the modern economy has risen from a steady swing to an increasingly rapid clip. Keeping up has never been so tough.

    Siemens digital factory: LEE and MATT troubleshoot a printed circuit board inside the Siemens production facility at Siemens House in Congleton . “We are under the threat of closure all the time,” says Andrew Peters without a hint of fear in his voice. As though repeating himself for the hundredth time, the managing director of Siemens’ Congleton factory in Cheshire explains his workers are battling for survival. Competition in this historic market town at the foothills of the Pennines, where lush green hills rise to the craggy moorlands of the Peak District, is increasingly global. “Everyone is in a race to make their products as efficient and productive as possible. If we didn’t have a drive on productivity we wouldn’t be in business.” This particular plant turns out more than a million motor drives a year, used to control the speed of airport luggage belts including those at Heathrow and Gatwick. Production here is unrecognisable from a decade ago before the robots arrived, emblematic of industry across the country. Over the past decade, the metronome of the modern economy has risen from a steady swing to an increasingly rapid clip. Keeping up has never been so tough.

    'Things are changing so fast': the benefits and dangers of robots in the UK workplace. Siemens’ Congleton factory in Cheshire.
    Siemens digital factory: A woman places components on to a printed circuit board inside the Siemens production facility at Siemens House in Congleton . “We are under the threat of closure all the time,” says Andrew Peters without a hint of fear in his voice. As though repeating himself for the hundredth time, the managing director of Siemens’ Congleton factory in Cheshire explains his workers are battling for survival. Competition in this historic market town at the foothills of the Pennines, where lush green hills rise to the craggy moorlands of the Peak District, is increasingly global. “Everyone is in a race to make their products as efficient and productive as possible. If we didn’t have a drive on productivity we wouldn’t be in business.” This particular plant turns out more than a million motor drives a year, used to control the speed of airport luggage belts including those at Heathrow and Gatwick. Production here is unrecognisable from a decade ago before the robots arrived, emblematic of industry across the country. Over the past decade, the metronome of the modern economy has risen from a steady swing to an increasingly rapid clip. Keeping up has never been so tough.
