The long-running reality show is making some changes after ejecting a contestant for improperly touching women
In the statement, the network claims that they acted responsibly in the production of the show.
“Season 39 of “Survivor” has been unprecedented for all of us, with important social issues and inappropriate individual behavior intersecting with game play in complex ways that we’ve never seen before,” the statement reads. “During the course of the production, we listened to the players intently, investigated responsibly and responded accordingly, including taking the unprecedented step of removing a player from the game.
“At the same time, we are responsible for the final outcome of this season,” the statement continues. “We recognize there are things we could have done differently, and we are determined to do better going forward…We will take the important lessons we learned from this season and adopt new protocols and procedures for future seasons, to ensure that the events that occurred this season are not repeated.
The show says that in future seasons, they will add an on-site professional to talk to players about the concerns. Contestants will be able to report issues to the professional, who will address their concerns apart from the game. Additionally, cast members will go through anti-harassment, unconscious bias and sensitivity training on location.“A new rule will be implemented stating unwelcome physical contact, sexual harassment and impermissible biases cannot be brought into the competition and will not be permitted as part of gameplay. This will be covered in the cast orientation for each season, along with clear instructions on how to report violations.
