On Sunday afternoon, Susan Fowler — now an engineer at payments company Stripe — published an essay alleging that Uber’s human resources representatives ignored multiple reports of sexual harassment and sexism during her year-long stint at the company.
星期天下午，支付公司Stripe（一家在线支付服务商）的一位工程师苏珊·福勒发表了一篇文章，声称她在优步（Uber，美国的滴滴）公司工作的一年里，优步的人力资源代表无视了多次关于性骚扰以及性别歧视的反馈。
In response to her essay, calls to #deleteUber — a hashtag that gained steam when people thought the car-hailing service was trying to profit off the backs of taxi drivers protesting President Donald Trump’s travel ban — have cropped up on Twitter again. Uber CEO Travis Kalanick stepped down from a Trump advisory council in part due to the vehement response to the widespread complaints.
（先前）人们认为这家打车服务商试图从抗议特朗普禁行令的出租车司机身上获取利益，因此推特上就出现了一个“删掉优步”的话题标签。这次因为她的文章，呼吁“删掉优步”的话题标签再次出现在推特上，而且愈演愈烈。优步总裁特拉维斯·卡拉尼克退出了特朗普的顾问委员会，从某种程度上来讲就是由人们对普遍抗议的强烈响应所引起的。
The #deleteUber movement hit the business hard, with Uber reporting over 200,000 account deletions, although other sources said the number was even higher.
“删掉优步”的活动使优步的生意遭受了沉重的打击，据报道优步被删掉的账户已达20多万，然而其他信息来源称这个数字甚至可以说更高。
Now this new controversy — especially since Uber has previously been criticized about its commitment to the safety of female customers, some obviously sexist ads and also several very questionable comments from its top execs related to women — has the potential to make those numbers rise even further.
如今，特别是因为先前人们就指责了优步对女性顾客安全方面的承诺、批判了优步的一些明显带有性别歧视的广告，还批评了优步高管对女性的几个非常有问题的评论，因此这场新的争议可能会使该数字进一步增长。
So it’s no surprise that Kalanick responded quickly to the Fowler essay on Twitter. “I have just read Susan Fowler's blog. What she describes is abhorrent and against everything Uber stands for and believes in,” wrote Kalanick, who claimed it was the “first time this has come to my attention.” “We seek to make Uber a just workplace and there can be absolutely no place for this kind of behavior at Uber — and anyone who behaves this way or thinks this is OK will be fired."
所以，卡拉尼克迅速地在推特上回应了福勒这篇文章也就不足为奇了。“我刚读了苏珊·福勒的博客。她所描述的情况（与优步）是不相符的，而且与优步所支持并信奉的一切相悖，”卡拉尼克写道，他还声称这是“第一次因为这类事件而引起他的关注。”“我们力图使优步成为一个公正的工作场所，在优步绝对不会出现这种行为。任何如此行事的人或是认为这没问题的人都会被解雇。”
He also said the company’s recently hired head of human resources, Liane Hornsey, will be launching an “independent” investigation into Fowler’s claims, along with independent board member Arianna Huffington.
他还表示，优步最近聘请了莉恩·霍恩西担任人力资源主管，她将与独立董事阿莉安娜·赫芬顿一起对福勒的声明进行“独立”调查。
