PolicingTV 26/9/2022 Feature, Interview, Opinion, Video To Report or Not to Report? A Systematic Review of Sex Workers’ Willingness to Report Violence and Victimization to Police Sex workers face high risks of violence both during and after the performance of their job, yet the prevalence and willingness to report victimization to the police is extremely low. International research on the motives of sex workers not to report violent crimes to police is scarce and fragmented. To address this knowledge gap, a systematic review was conducted to answer the following question: What reasons do sex workers articulate to explain their reluctance to report victimization to the police? After searching for peer-reviewed and grey literature in various databases, using systematic search terms, nine studies met the inclusion criteria. After thematic analysis, four main motivations for not reporting victimization emerged: (i) fear of punishment, (ii) fear of maltreatment, (iii) fear of exposure, and (iv) fear of impunity. The impact of intersectional and personal characteristics of sex workers (i.e., gender, migration status, type of sex work, etc.) were explored. The findings show that sex workers experience low levels of trust in the police which results in unwillingness to report victimization. The article argues that decriminalization of the sex industry, and action to improve procedural justice, are likely to increase the inclination of sex workers to report a crime to police.
