About the event
Wondering why you should prioritise this issue?
1 in 3 women and 1 in 7 men are affected by domestic abuse in their lifetime.
For many years we have tended to see this as a private matter. But there are a range of ways this will be impacting your workplace:
- Days of work missed
- Productivity affected
- Stalking and surveillance of employees whilst they are at your workplace
- Employees leaving the workplace altogether and all the costs of recruitment, induction, teams being short-staffed this incurs
You may not have received disclosures but this does not mean it isn’t happening to those in your teams.
Could you get more from your staff by creating a more supportive workplace environment that proactively brings domestic abuse into the open as a topic you’re not afraid to address?
At just £95/person, this is an ideal opportunity for your HR Lead, L&D Lead or some of your People Managers to come along and get a taste of our approach and if it is right for your organisation as a whole.
Delegates will receive lunch courtesy of Business Durham, as well as 2 informational resource books to take away.
Past training participants have said:
“Gave me more confidence to have those conversations.”
“Broadened the context in which I understand domestic abuse”
“Films were very powerful, backed up by quality resources”
“I found the interactive session very engaging. Can’t wait to share my experience and new knowledge.”
“Changing Relations training format is very different to what you might be used to - they use arts and media as a conduit for deep and meaningful reflections without invading anyone's privacy.”
