Employment and Job Training Resources
A common form of Economic Abuse is employment or education sabotage. An abusive partner may threaten a victim-survivor when trying to find work or as she continues to work, harass co-workers, hinder her from going to a job (interview) by hiding clothes or car keys, inflicting visible bruises, or not being available for child care (additional information will be available in CCFWE’s upcoming “Economic Abuse Fact Sheet”).
Victim-survivors may have been unemployed for long periods of time and have difficulties (re)integrating into the workforce. Most shelters will know the provincial and territorial employment centres, but as potential reference, below are some general adult learning and training sources that victim-survivors could access:
