Domestic Abuse and the Workplace – Online Workshop for the Third Sector

Hosted by Ros Jones

Will you take a stand against domestic abuse and make a real difference to the people in your organisation?

With 1 in 5 men and women experiencing domestic abuse, there is a significant chance that people in your workplace are experiencing it.

This online, 2 hour workshop is for those working in the third sector, including charities, public sector bodies, CICs and social enterprises.

It takes part during No More Week, the national event to encourage more organisations and businesses to talk about domestic abuse.

In this workshop you’ll learn:

• Why domestic abuse is a workplace issue, including the legal requirements
• What you can do to support your workforce
• How your organisation can support the Yorkshire Business Charter on Domestic Abuse

Tickets are £35 and attendees will be provided with a free HR Domestic abuse policy template devised by an HR professional with specialist knowledge in this area.

About Ros Jones

Yorkshire based Ros Jones is a business coach, trainer, author and domestic abuse campaigner.

Following the release of her first novel, Ros was overwhelmed with the amount of people within the business community who reached out to her to share their own experiences of domestic abuse similar to that of the characters she wrote about.

This spurred Ros on to create an annual conference in October aimed at getting more business and organisations speaking about the issue, and creating the right support systems for their workforces.

In October 2023, Ros created the Yorkshire Business Charter on Domestic Abuse with the charity IDAS as a catalyst for organisations to start making positive changes and playing their part in ending domestic abuse.
