Sveriges Radio has reviewed the new statistics from the Swedish Work Environment Authority. At certain times during the last ten years, student assistants have been the professional group most exposed to threats and violence in society as a whole, according to the statistics.
We know that it occurs year in and year out. I see it as a professional group that we throw under the bus, says Sofia Wikman, professor of criminology at the University of Gävle, to the radio.
Last year, 1,200 reports of threats and violence were made within the school.
