<p>The Department does not collect specific data around the sexual assault of National
Health Service staff by patients or associated compensation payments, as this issue
is expected to be dealt with locally, in line with the NHS complaints procedure. Further
information is available at the following link:</p><p> </p><p><a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-nhs-constitution-for-england/how-do-i-give-feedback-or-make-a-complaint-about-an-nhs-service"

</p><p>We are committed to supporting NHS trusts to protect their staff from sexual
harassment. The Social Partnership Forum has led a call to action for NHS organisations
to eliminate all forms of bullying and harassment as part of creating a healthy, inclusive
and compassionate workplace culture. Eradicating sexual harassment will be one of
its top priorities in 2019/20.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>
