Have you or someone you know been affected by domestic violence?

Domestic violence is a shocking and terrible issue that affects many people within UK. The common perception of domestic violence is that it is a private matter. However, the affects of abuse are not left at home when a person goes to work.

Organisations within the UK are committed to tackling domestic violence within their workplaces. However, in order to effectively address the issue, more information is required on how domestic violence impacts the workplace.
