Labour Minister Marina Elvira
Calderone said Saturday that women who have been put on a
special programme of 'protection' after being the victims of
gender-based violence will be able to access a new 'inclusion'
benefit from the start of next year.
In a video for the International Day for the Elimination of
Violence Against Women, Calderone said the support will last for
18 months and will be renewable.
The victims of the violence will also be able to get help paying
rent, she said.
Calderone said there will be tax breaks for employers who hire
women on this programme too.
