Resources for Employers
Workplace Safe
If your employee is in an abusive relationship and trying to end the relationship, the office may be the only place the batterer can find and harm the individual, putting coworkers at risk.
Domestic Violence can affect your work environment and impact your bottom line. Employees who are battered at home could face many daily challenges at work:
- Absenteeism – no shows, late to work, early departures
- Lost Productivity – lack of concentration, fatigue, increased mistakes
- Increased Health Care Costs – total health care costs for family violence equals hundreds of millions of dollars, the majority often paid by employer
- Workplace Safety – harassment at work from batterer
