National Ugly Mugs(NUM)是一个英国范围内的暴力预防和受害者支持慈善机构,为性工作者提供一个分享安全信息的机制,并为他们在工作过程中可能遇到的伤害提供支持。在过去的几年里,NUM目睹了愿意接触警察的性工作者的减少,这是他们在经历了性骚扰后恢复旅程的一部分。2012年,向全国矿工工会报告的人中有28%选择与法律的系统接触; 2020年,这一比例在街头独立工人中下降到7.7%。2021年的统计数据显示,这一下降趋势仍在继续。此外,匿名同意与警方分享信息的比例也从2012年的95%下降到2020年的69%。NUM在2020年对88名性工作者进行了调查。这一信息与我们的数据相结合,提供了对阻止性工作者将警察作为其寻求正义努力的一部分的因素的见解。调查结果显示,性工作者感到被警察和法院疏远和不信任。性工作者不与警方分享危险个人的信息,选择不参加法庭程序,这表明我们的法律的制度在安全和不公平的准入方面存在重大缺陷,并对我们所有人构成危险。
National Ugly Mugs (NUM) is a UK-wide violence prevention and victim support charity that provides a mechanism for sex workers to share safety information and obtain support for harms that they may experience during the course of their work. Over the past several years, NUM has witnessed a decline in sex workers willing to access police as part of their recovery journeys after experiencing victimisation. In 2012, 28% of those reporting to NUM chose to engage with the legal system; in 2020, this was down to 7.7% amongst off-street independent workers. Statistics for 2021 indicate a continuation of this downward trend. Furthermore, anonymous consent to share information with police also declined from 95% in 2012 to 69% in 2020. NUM conducted a survey of 88 sex working members in 2020. This information combined with our data on victimisation provides insights of the factors that deter sex workers from involving police as part of their justice-seeking efforts. Survey results reveal that sex workers feel alienated and untrusting of police and courts. The implications of sex workers not sharing information about dangerous individuals with police and choosing not to participate in court processes signal significant flaws in our legal system regarding safe and inequitable access and pose dangers for all of us.
