One for the ladies

From HQ:

Last year the Equal Opportunities Commission (EOC) carried out an investigation into how pregnant women are treated at work. They found that around 30,000 women suffered from pregnancy discrimination. Now we want to know your experiences at work when you became pregnant, the good stories as well as the bad. Each question has a space for further details.

The more women that answer this questionnaire, the better - we need to know how we can help you. Your response will be treated in the strictest confidence and you do not have to give your name if you don't want to.

We will use the information gained to improve the support we give pregnant NUJ members at work.

We would also like to use the information to produce a maternity guide for other members and we may use comments made by you to illustrate that booklet. These will remain completely anonymous and you can be assured that we will treat the information you have provided sensitively. However if you object to your response being used in this way please ensure that you answer 'No' to the final question of the survey.

To complete the survey, go to http://www.nujtraining.org.uk/poll.phtml.

The deadline for completing the survey is Friday, 14th April. If you would like to provide more details or expand upon your experiences, then please email equality@nuj.org.uk.
