In the period from April 2021 to the end of March this year, 41 incidents of abusive or threatening behaviour were officially reported by North East Lincolnshire Council staff. They included verbal abuse, being spat at, threats out and about in the borough, and in offices. With these continuing into this year, officers believe there are more that go unreported, especially when it comes to verbal abuse.
“Assaults on people at work are unacceptable and this behaviour will not be tolerated. Everyone has the right to go about their lawful work without the fear of abuse just for doing their job. This especially applies to those who are working hard to support our communities and ensuring North East Lincolnshire can be a better and safer place to live and work in. ”
She recalled one occasion when she was hit back against a wall by a man, who was prosecuted for the incident, which also involved assaults on two police officers. Whilst on another occasion a second individual targeted her with a run of verbal threats. It was the latter, she says, which caused her more concern, but which was more difficult to act upon.
