HSC Forum: Understanding and Responding to Domestic Violence for Employers

With Lyn Staack, Education Director, Advocacy Center of Tompkins County & Michelle Artibee, Director, Workforce Wellbeing, Division of Human Resources at Cornell University

Domestic violence is often thought of as a private relationship issue. However, it has far reaching impacts outside of the relationship and specifically in our workplace/on our campus. This training will give managers an understanding of:

• What constitutes domestic violence and the prevalence of it
  
• The signs an employee may be experiencing abuse
  
• Resources that are available to help
  
• Ways to effectively respond that addresses the safety and wellbeing of the victim as well as the entire workplace
  
• Labor law protections for victims and reasonable accommodations
