ZERO TOLERANCE TO VIOLENCE
UNISON SURVEY - CLOSED

UNISON is concerned about the number of violent incidents to our members.  Violence includes threats, verbal abuse and harassment as well as actual attacks and injury to staff by clients and members of the public. 

To gain more information about the risks of violence UNISON is conducting a confidential survey.  UNISON does not accept that you should put up with violence at work as part of your job.  It is not the individual's fault when it happens.  Work related violence can be prevented and controlled, and your employer has legal duties to ensure your safety.

To help us raise the issue of violence with your employer we need more evidence of the extent and causes of violence against staff.  Please complete this confidential questionnaire and return it to your UNISON representative.  Please help us to help you. Please submit before 14 May 2003
