Designed for the business community, our customized, professional development program – REACH focuses on increasing awareness of IPV and how it impacts the workplace.
How Intimate Partner Violence Impacts the Workplace
The cost of intimate partner violence exceeds $8.3 billion per year.
Between 21-60% of victims of intimate partner violence lose their jobs due to reasons stemming from the abuse.
Between 2003 and 2008, 142 women were murdered in their workplace by their abuser, 78% of women killed in the workplace during this timeframe.
After leaving and abuser, survivors are 20 times more likely to be the victims of workplace violence.
Learning the signs of IPV and how to support colleagues is a crucial step in ending intimate partner violence.
