Workplace Domestic Abuse Awareness
Everyone has the right to feel safe in their place of work, however for many this is not the case. Two women each week and one man each month are killed in England and Wales by a current or former partner. These people could be a part of your work force.
Statistics from the 16 Days of Action Campaign show that:
-
75% of people who endure domestic abuse are targeted at work
-
One-fifth of employed women take time off work because of domestic abuse
-
2% lose their jobs as a direct result of abuse
-
56% of those living with abuse are frequently late for work
-
58% miss at least 3 days work per month due to abuse
-
33% of all domestic violence homicides happen on workplace grounds
-
the potential loss of earnings per woman in the UK as a result of abuse having negative impacts on career progression, is estimated to be £5,800.
NDAS can support your workplace with policy writing, training needs, supporting your staff and much more.

what is
marac?
MARAC stands for Multi-Agency Risk Assessment Conference. MARACs are multi-agency meetings where those identified as at high risk of serious harm or homicide are referred to.
MARACs are attended by representatives from a range of agencies that includes; police, health services, child protection, housing, domestic abuse advisers, probation, mental health and substance misuse specialists. Relevant and proportionate information is shared about the current risks to identify actions (Risk Management Plan) to increase the safety and wellbeing of the victim and any other vulnerable parties, eg children.
The trainer was really knowledgeable and I learnt so much about the complexities of domestic abuse and the purpose of the MARAC
