Establish a policy on supporting employees experiencing domestic violence
Key points
Employers can support employees experiencing domestic abuse, for example by offering flexibility around working hours and time off, and providing information and advice.
Employers should consider making employees aware of measures in place to support victims of domestic violence, including by establishing and promoting a policy.
Measures could include, for example, having a member of staff who is trained to be the first point of contact for employees experiencing domestic abuse.
