Without robust, transparent reporting systems, incidents too often slip through the cracks, allowing harm to continue unchecked 🚨

This inaction can create a culture where violence is normalised and victims are further discouraged from speaking out.

The cost of violence at work is devastating.

Abuse and violence not only leave a lasting impact on employees but also carry wider costs for employers who lose valuable talent.

It’s time to #ChangeShifts to #ChangeSafety, because everyone has the right to be safe. #NPSD2025

In line with previous research focusing on marginalised communities - such as disabled and LGBTQ+ workers - our #NPSD2025 research reveals that Black and minoritised workers are at significantly higher risk of abuse at work.

The government has committed to halve violence against women and girls in the next decade.

To make this happen, we must close down spaces where perpetrators are able to carry out these crimes, including at work.

Frontline workers are at high risk of violence, aggression, and abuse whilst at work 🚩

The event featured powerful discussions on tackling online violence against women and girls and how technology can be harnessed for good.

Huge thanks to Centre for Protecting Women Online for organising🥳

This week, HMICFRS released their annual State of Policing report.

While some forces show positive leadership in working to support victims of gender-based violence, it's very disappointing to see that not more progress has been made to tackle violence against women and girls.
