This guide was intended to assist press companies in developing standard operating procedure (SOP) for handling sexual violence against female journalists. With that in mind, this guide outlines the main points that need to be included in the guide as well as the principles that press companies need to follow when preparing SOPs.

This guide was intended to serve as a reference for various press companies in Indonesia, both commercial and non-commercial, including public press companies such as RRI and TVRI.

By referring to international human rights (HAM) conventions, Indonesian laws and regulations and legal policies, as well as other related references, such as the guidelines made by UN Women (2021) and SOPs for handling sexual violence which are already owned by several press companies, it is hoped that this guide will provide standards that uphold the rights of female workers in the context of Indonesian social and human rights law.
