No woman should be forced to choose between her own safety and the support of her family. I signed today the opinion that guarantees income to women who need to leave work by court decision to protect themselves from domestic violence. The employer covers the first 15 days, and then the INSS ensures payment during the leave, which can last up to six months. The protection of women is a priority of our government. Those who suffer violence need to find protection in public power to break this cycle, preserve their independence, and rebuild their lives. Violence against women is not a private matter. It is a problem for society as a whole and must be faced with firmness, protection, and public policies. #ViolênciaContraMulher #DireitosDasMulheres #ProteçãoSocial (translated)
