Women’s careers were destroyed by domestic abuse – even after escaping their partners
Survivors warn the effects of domestic abuse impact their careers years on – with little support available from employers. Athena Stavrou reports
Domestic abuse survivors warn their careers remain shattered long after escaping abuse.
One survivor, fired days after a brutal attack, calls for workplace reforms.
‘My face was still bruised when I was laid off.’
There is no excuse as an employer to not have a domestic abuse policy.

A victim of #coercivecontrol pushing back against their abuser by yelling or fighting back doesn't make them problematic, toxic, not innocent, not a good person, flawed, also abusive, or anything else along these lines.
They just needed their abuser's awful, soul destroying behaviour to stop.
