“Having first-hand experiences of our members becoming victims of such heinous crimes, it has become necessary for our Union to speak out against Domestic Violence and create awareness. The Banking, Insurance and General Workers Union commit to providing avenues for victims to seek help through its various arms (youth, women and general council members). BIGWU will conduct seminars, provide educational material, and send out electronic advisories to help curb the rate of these cruel acts. The Union’s uttermost goal is that of Prevention.”
