Ambulance workers fear being attacked' over Christmas period
"From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging."
"A survey by the GMB union, encompassing more than 1,100 workers from ambulance trusts across the UK, showed that over 40 per cent fear being physically attacked, and more than half are worried about verbal abuse. The GMB publicised its findings on the last Friday before Christmas,"
The Independent reports on a wide range of topics including reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech, and produces documentaries such as 'The A Word' about American women fighting for reproductive rights. The outlet emphasizes parsing facts from messaging, refuses to use paywalls, and relies on donations to fund on-the-ground reporting and maintain open access. A GMB union survey of more than 1,100 ambulance workers found two out of three fear being attacked while on duty over the Christmas period. Over 40% fear physical assault, more than half worry about verbal abuse, and three in four reported negative impacts on mental health.
