Employers are encouraged to keep a log of injuries, calls, and other incidents related to violence in the workplace that affect someone’s ability to work. In some instances, an employer’s record has made the difference in a survivor achieving justice in court against an abusive person. Talk to your Human Resources Department and your Security and/or Risk Management staff about issues unique to your company or organization.
Telling Amy’s Story is a movie documenting the importance of addressing domestic violence in the workplace.
