Sexualised & domestic violence
Sexualised and domestic violence are ignored and hidden, especially in the workplace. Yet this is precisely where sexualised violence often takes place. The coronavirus pandemic has in turn strengthened domestic violence and favoured seemingly hopeless situations in which people's own homes become the scene of violence. If you or someone close to you is affected by sexualised and/or domestic violence, please contact one of the counselling centres for sexualised and domestic violence listed on this page. Under the link sexual harassment you will also find information on what sexualised violence is, as well as a contact form to contact the equal opportunities office anonymously.

Hospitals that carry out anonymous forensics after sexual violence
For victims of sexual violence, filing a criminal complaint is usually a threshold that often cannot be overcome immediately after the offence. Anonymous evidence collection is a service offered by hospitals to document and archive the offence in a legally secure and confidential manner, so that a report can be filed years later.
