Coercive Control Sample Clauses

Coercive Control. Coercive control comprises a complex pattern of abuse, using power and psychological domination to exert and maintain control over another. It includes financial control (see section 1.2.3), psychological/emotional abuse (see section 1.2.4) and forced social isolation (i.e. isolation from friends, family and other support networks). It is important to note that survivors of domestic violence are rarely subjected to just one of the behaviours outlined above (Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx & Xxxxx-Xxxxxx, 2010); a finding supported by the research study presented in Chapter 5, which explores the type and severity of abuse experienced by male and female psychiatric service users. Around half of women and a third of men who experience domestic violence report more than one form of abusive behaviour (Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx, et al, 2007). In an attempt to gain a deeper understanding of the nature of domestic violence among men and women, several scholars have attempted to examine the patterns and characteristics of violence within violent relationships; as outlined below.

  • Site Control In the total loss of building use scenario, what likely exists will be a smoking pile of rubble. This rubble will contain many components that could be dangerous. It could also contain any personnel on the premises at the time of the disaster. For these reasons, the local fire marshal with the assistance of the police will control the site until the building is no longer a threat to surrounding properties and the companies have secured the site from the general public. During this time, the majority owner of the building should be arranging for a demolition contractor to mobilize to the site with the primary objective of reaching the cable entrance facility for a damage assessment. The results of this assessment would then dictate immediate plans for restoration, both short term and permanent. In a less catastrophic event, i.e., the building is still standing and the cable entrance facility is usable, the situation is more complex. The site will initially be controlled by local authorities until the threat to adjacent property has diminished. Once the site is returned to the control of the companies, the following events should occur. An initial assessment of the main building infrastructure systems (mechanical, electrical, fire and life safety, elevators, and others) will establish building needs. Once these needs are determined, the majority owner should lead the building restoration efforts. There may be situations where the site will not be totally restored within the confines of the building. The companies must individually determine their needs and jointly assess the cost of permanent restoration to determine the overall plan of action. Multiple restoration trailers from each company will result in the need for designated space and installation order. This layout and control is required to maximize the amount of restoration equipment that can be placed at the site, and the priority of placements. Care must be taken in this planning to ensure other restoration efforts have logistical access to the building. Major components of telephone and building equipment will need to be removed and replaced. A priority for this equipment must also be jointly established to facilitate overall site restoration. (Example: If the AC switchgear has sustained damage, this would be of the highest priority in order to regain power, lighting, and HVAC throughout the building.) If the site will not accommodate the required restoration equipment, the companies would then need to quickly arrange with local authorities for street closures, rights of way or other possible options available.
