Abstract
Gender-based violence also has an impact on employment. Work can become a useful tool or resource for victims, providing them with professional, economic, personal and social independence. But the victims´ employment relationship suffers as a result of the violence so that if the purpose is their comprehensive protection, it becomes necessary to address the labour aspects of their provision of services, in the case of employed victims. But it is also unavoidable to attend the victims in unemployment situations, to facilitate their insertion in the job market; access to work that was made difficult by prejudice and discrimination when hiring women victims of gender violence, a task in which companies and public administrations must be involved. LO 1/2004, of December 28, on comprehensive protection against gender-based violence (LOVG), whose objective was to complete the care for victims of gender-based violence, reaches the workplace through different measures of promotion, guarantees of access and maintenance of employment, measures that can be revised seeking its further development.Downloads
