Gay garda tells how he was and reveals force changes
"This resulted in snide comments,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], hushed voices and conversations suddenly ending when I entered the room; though having said that,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the vast majority of my work colleagues have been very supportive to me," he recalled.
However,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Garda Clancy is hoping his experience will help other members of the force to come forward if they experience any similar problems themselves.
"Some LGB find it hard to deal with such occurrences and find it helpful to talk to someone who has first-hand understanding," Garda Clancy explained in Garda Review.
He has been openly gay since joining the force at the age of 25 but felt at one stage that his sexual orientation could hold him back.
"I waited until I was 25 before I joined, under the previous age restrictions.
"I felt that being gay would hold me back or that I wouldn't be able to face the inevitable insults," he wrote in the force's main magazine.
"From the outside looking in,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I believed that all police services were very heterosexual; and therefore anti-homosexual.
"In the last few years, I have seen a relatively large increase in the number of gay men and lesbians joining,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], partly due to the change in society's view of homosexuality,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," he wrote.
Not surprisingly,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], An Garda Siochana has been changing in tune with society.
Garda Clancy is a trained peer supporter and equality advisor within the force. What makes his role different from the employee assistance programme is that it focuses more on LGB issues within the force,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
Any member of An Garda Siochana who has been harassed as a direct result of their sexual orientation has to be provided with direct assistance,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
"In the future,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], there may be an LGB officer appointed to each region,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], offering similar support to members as employee assistance officers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," Garda Clancy said.
"While we are gardai first,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], personal issues are recognised to affect our work lives.
"The bullying,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], harrassment and sexual document is a milestone in preventing and dealing with bullying in An Garda Siochana,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," he writes in the magazine.相关的主题文章:
