Safe@work Coalition, Domestic Violence and the Workplace

Domestic Violence as a Workplace Issue

Domestic Violence is the leading cause of injury to women. It impacts one out of every four women. Problems of domestic violence frequently spill into the workplace. Batterers commit 13,000 violent acts against their partners in the workplace each year. Batterers also pose serious threats to the safety of their victims' co-workers. Research shows that their husbands or boyfriends at work harassed 74 percent of employed battered women. Every month, domestic violence caused 56 percent of them to be late at least five times, 28 percent to leave early at least five days and 54 percent to be late for work at least five times. As a result many workers face disciplinary action.

Employment is the key to a domestic violence victim's economic self-sufficiency, but the US General Accounting Office found that one-quarter to one-half of domestic violence victims surveyed lost a job due, at least in part, to domestic violence.

What is Domestic Violence?

What is Domestic Violence?

Domestic violence is also called intimate partner abuse. Domestic abuse can be broadly defined as a pattern of abusive behaviour by one or both partners in an intimate relationship such as marriage, cohabitation, dating, within a family or among friends.

Forms of Domestic Violence

Domestic violence can manifest itself in different forms:

• Physical abuse includes hitting, slapping, throwing objects, using a knife or gun to threaten someone, pulling hair, punching with the fist, etc.

• Sexual abuse includes forced sexual intercourse, being forced to watch or act out pornography, touching genitals by mouth, forcing sex by inserting a penis or an object into a vagina, forced prostitution, etc.

• Emotional abuse includes threat of harm, humiliation in front of others, limiting movement outside a home, etc

• Financial abuse includes being forced to hand over money, being prevented from earning an income, being forced to ask for money for basic needs, etc.

What causes domestic violence?

Domestic violence may start when one partner feels the need to control and dominate the other. Abusers may feel this need to control their partner because of various reasons -- low self-esteem, extreme jealousy, difficulties in regulating anger and other strong emotions, or when they feel inferior to the other partner in terms of education and socio-economic background. Some men with very traditional beliefs may think they have the right to control women because women aren’t equal to men. Victims of domestic violence can develop depression, anxiety, suicidal tendencies and feelings of helplessness.

PRACTICAL AND LEGAL SOLUTIONS TO DOMESTIC VIOLENCE

You can take preventative measures to stop violence by applying for a protection order against the person abusing you. The Domestic Violence Act 116/1998 makes provision for a person who is being abused to apply to the Magistrate’s Court for a protection order. This is done on application and needs to be granted by a magistrate, if there is evidence supporting allegations of abuse. An order may be requested by anyone who is, or was, in a domestic relationship with the respondent (abusing party). An application for a protection order can be brought on behalf of the applicant by any other person with the applicant’s consent.

Senior citizens face many problems, including illness and diminished capacity for independence and self-care, economic problems, difficulties in obtaining affordable quality housing, and often loneliness and isolation. Those who are immigrants often have these problems, compounded by language and cultural barriers.

This sector of our community receives the Center's primary focus and is provided with a wide range of services through our Senior Programs. A complete up-to-date bank of information relevant to their needs is maintained, and cooperative relationships have been established with other centers and agencies that serve seniors. In this way, this special group in our community has access to all resources that will improve their quality of life.

Escort Program

This program provides scheduling, transportation, translation and interpretation, as well as advocacy for the seniors by trained professionals and volunteers. In this manner, seniors can avail themselves of those resources vital to their well-being. Year in and year out, about 4,000 escort trips are administered covering more than 20,000 miles. Most trips are used to assist seniors to utilize the services of health professionals and agencies that they otherwise would be unable to access.

Clube 60

This is the social club sponsored by the Center that serves as the vehicle for a multitude of recreational and social activities. Its membership is nearly 500 seniors who plan and participate in activities such as sightseeing trips, birthday parties, luncheons, dances, arts and crafts, as well as a variety of other activities and projects carried out both in the Center and on outings.

In their desire to be productive and help support their Center, the members participate actively in fundraising drives for the organization. They also devote their energies to planning and evaluating the various programs and services that the Center provides.

Counseling

For those with serious problems in the areas of mental health, family or individual functioning, counseling services are provided by professional clinical social workers having the special cultural and language expertise to facilitate problem solving.

Nutrition Program

Begun in 1989 with a grant from Santa Clara County, the Nutrition Program provides as many as 110 seniors with a delicious hot lunch and an afternoon of camaraderie five times each week. This program fulfills one of POSSO's long-range goals set many years ago, and is one of the most-enjoyed by the seniors.

The need for this program surpasses POSSO's government subsidy. POSSO funds the additional meals through fundraising rather than restricting the number of seniors who can partake in this program.

Food Distribution

In addition to the Second Harvest Food Bank Brown Bag Program, federal surplus food commodities are also distributed to those low- income seniors who apply and qualify for this benefit.

Tax Assistance

Through the efforts of our staff and volunteers, thousands of dollars were returned to seniors in Homeowner's and Renter's Assistance and Renter's Credit Programs offered by the State of California. Furthermore, financial assistance was provided to seniors through our ensuring their participation in the state's HEAP utility assistance program and other available subsidies.

Martha’s Kitchen Hours of Operation:

• Tuesday and Wednesday: Meal Service: 4:00pp - 5:00pm

Nestled between downtown San Jose and the quaint town of Willow Glen lies a “little soup kitchen” that will turn 30 in 2011. Founder Louise Benson began this work out of her garage when she prepared and gave away peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for the poor. Then in 1981, she and her friends started Martha’s Kitchen on the premises of the Sacred Heart Church serving hot meals. The kitchen was named after a biblical figure, Martha, who unfailingly offered hot meals to Jesus and his band of followers on their frequent journeys through the community of Bethany.

Today, this “little soup kitchen” is not so little anymore.  It still gives out hot meals onsite with its mission to “feed the hungry with dignity, no questions asked, no judgment made.”  And its meals are hot and complete with soup, salad, roll, starch, a main dish, fruit and dessert.  It also sends out 160,000 hot and cold meals annually to a dozen other non-profit organizations in Santa Clara county as far south as Gilroy, and even to the dusty agricultural town of Dos Palos in Merced county to support the hungry. Before the end of 2010 it will serve its 2,000,000th meal since it has grown to an annual production of 200,000 meals. The “little soup kitchen that could” has proven it certainly could run an efficient kitchen with a lean staff of 6 employees which includes the Executive Director/Development Director, Operations Manager, two cooks and two kitchen help.  Edita Cruz, Executive Directors forecasts that Martha’s Kitchen will prepare its next 1,000,000 meals in as little as five years.

Over 70 percent of the residents at the Shelter are children and most are under the age of ten.
