People have been participating in mass rallies in India seeking justice for a young medical trainee who was raped and murdered in a hospital.

It’s put a spotlight once again on women’s safety at work - particularly for those women doing night shifts.

There are laws to protect women from sexual harassment in the workplace, but campaigners say it can be slow to get justice.

So what more can be done to improve women's safety and encourage female participation in the workforce? We talk to some night shift workers about their experiences.
