Some workplaces have schemes to support employees who may be living with abuse.
LDAS can support you if want to speak to your employer. We can support you to continue to work in a manner that keeps you as safe as possible. Please contact us for support.
We have also put together a helpful download that you can print off, fill in and refer back to at any point.
Your employer may have a policy in place to support employees that are experiencing abuse and need support in work. Check your policies and procedures for any such document as this may help you feel more confident if you wish to discuss this with our employer.
LDAS are happy to support you to approach your employer if this is something that you would prefer. You are not alone and we are here to support you with this or in developing a plan to make sure your time in work is as safe as it can be.
The approach to how we deliver our support is reviewed by survivors who tell us what works and what doesn’t. This ensures we deliver the best possible support to survivors in way that suits their needs.
