You may be aware of recent incidents of civil unrest. Employers of Nurses and Midwives are very conscious of the safety of their staff as they make their way to and from work each day and it is deeply worrying that some staff have been subjected to racist abuse. This is unacceptable behaviour and if you have experienced racist abuse please report each incident to the PSNI, tell your line manager and you can also speak to Human Resources.
