Understand the profound impact family and domestic violence can have on individuals and the broader community, including its effects on productivity and workplace dynamics.

Family and domestic violence is not only a private or personal issue. It affects a person’s ability to lead a productive life and has broader impacts on children, families and the community.

When an employee is living with family and domestic violence, they can experience heightened financial stress, homelessness, isolation, vulnerability and even a sense of shame. Without appropriate support, there can also be many implications for the workplace.
