Domestic violence in the workplace

Domestic violence affects people of all ages and races, from all walks of life and every social class. It affects many of our members and Usdaw is committed to supporting any member in this situation.

Usdaw believes domestic violence is a workplace issue. By working with employers to introduce workplace policies on domestic violence, we can change attitudes and help people who experience domestic violence to get the support they need.

Further support

If you require more support around domestic violence, there are other places you can reach out to.

Women's Aid have many tools for supporting those who need help and those who have survived domestic violence. 

The Samaritans can help with a number of issues, including domestic violence.
