Fórsa is encouraging members to take part in a new union survey on domestic violence.

The purpose of this study is to garner a better understanding of domestic abuse amongst the union membership. This survey also sets out to establish attitudes towards domestic abuse and evaluate supports available in workplaces.

This survey is strictly anonymous, and Fórsa will be unable to identify those who have taken part. The collated results will be presented at the upcoming equality network seminar on Wednesday 9^th November.

The survey will remain open until midday on Friday 4^th November, and can be accessed HERE. 

We understand that this can be a sensitive and difficult topic and we would like to draw your attention to some supports:

• If you or a family member are in immediate danger you can find a list of urgent supports HERE.
• Women’s Aid 
• Men’s Development Network and the Male Advice Line
• Women’s Aid has put together some useful resources to assist in safeguarding digital safety. You can read more HERE.

There’s never been a better time to join a union, and it’s never been easier. Join Fórsa today.
