It Doesn't Make Sense and It's Costing Us Millions
Strategic Domestic Violence Program for Human Resource
Professionals/Employers/CEOs/CFOs/Business Owners
Lost workdays and lost productivity are known as the biggest siphons of corporate profitability we have. These siphons usually are created by things that are happening outside the workplace. The smallest changes have the biggest results, and employers are in the unique position to make those changes.
Family abuse/violence is a subject that is not easily addressed because there are many people who deny its existence or the magnitude. Many people have trouble facing the possibility of having to deal with the serious effects it has on their employees personally and professionally; and that the organization, in turn, pays the price.
This program provides hands-on illustrations of the costs to the business bottom line. Participants leave with the ability to conduct a minimum of one cost-to-company calculation, a view of cost affected areas, a violence prevention plan and optionally experience victim (or offender) workplace discussion skill practice and an organization solutions package. You'll learn how to proactively achieve non-abuse through strategies; creating a healthier, safer workforce.

"I attended Stephanie's seminar on Domestic Violence at the recent NCSHRM event in Greensboro, NC. The 2 ½ hour seminar and workshop was very compelling! Stephanie drove home the costs that this places on companies and forces business professionals to realize the need to address this in their businesses.
I left the seminar with a goal to review our current policies and practices and to put into place training for employees and supervisors.
If even one person can be helped, it's worth it!"

Off the Beaten Path:
Recognizing if Someone You Know is in an Abusive Relationship
Domestic Violence program for Employees and General Public
Ever had a funny feeling about a friend, loved one, or co-worker's relationship but just not been really sure? Have you been concerned something may be seriously wrong - or even that your friend might be in danger? What about the kids? What are they seeing and experiencing? How safe are they?
Learn what domestic abuse is, both physical and non-physical. Understand whom it affects, the differences between popular myths and realistic facts. Learn how to recognize the subtle signs. Understand domestic violence prevention; how to respond and resources for help. The life you save may be your own or that of someone you love.
Threat Management Team Training
Like any prevention program, workplace violence should be treated holistically. It should be viewed from
a multi-disciplinary perspective with managers of various departments working together to leverage internal strengths and share resources.
It is not reasonable to believe that an untrained supervisor will know what to do should an employee become hostile or threatening - many recommended actions may even run counter to a supervisor's instincts. Training is important to the success of a Workplace Violence Prevention Program. Training should be tiered to provide general awareness to all employees, more specialized training for supervisors, and advanced training for members of any threat management team. A group approach fosters rational decision making and ensures that critical aspects are addressed.
Training includes lecture, case examples, and practical exercises in the assessment and management of threats and threatening behavior in keeping with industry Best Practices.
Pressure Cooker Employees Building Steam - 7 Strategies to Prevent Employers from Getting Burned
How would you know if the next employee you fire won't retaliate with violence? Are you confident
the employee abusing family members at home won't continue at your workplace? Can you be assured a staff member's angry family won't track their rage to your business?
You cannot dismiss the possibility that violence you read about will always happen to someone else, or that millions paid in damages will never happen to you. If one company paid $415,000, another paid $850,000 and one paid $7.9 million, why not you? No company is immune. Violence and litigation are connected. The employer is in the middle. How do you prevent getting burned?

Domestic and Workplace Violence: Impact on assistant police chiefs and commanders in their roles as workplace managers
Law Enforcement Training: Arizona Peace Officer Standards and Training (AZPOST #09-396)
Law enforcement agencies are workplaces like any other and are still susceptible to the same issues which can affect the well-being of the employees, and the organization as a whole.
Though they have recieved domestic violence training, law enforcement professionals are often afraid it will negatively reflect on them when it exists in their own lives. Its insidious nature prevents those affected from getting the help they need.
You will receive valuable information of supervisory roles and responsibilities and learn the return on investment (ROI) of responding to domestic violence, why the workplace is affected, discuss previous lawsuits against unprepared organizations, violence prevention policies and related laws. You will strengthen legal defense, mitigate threats, increase loss prevention and reduce exposure.
This program provides hands-on illustrations of the costs to the business bottom line. Participants leave with the ability to conduct a minimum of one cost-to-company calculation, a view of cost affected areas; optionally experience victim workplace discussion skill practices, and discuss organization strategies.

Is There a Bully in Your Workplace?
The Workplace Bullying Institute found in a nationally representative poll last year that 37 percent of the U.S. workforce, or 54 million employees, have been bullied now or some time during their work life. Bullying claims are a serious problem for American businesses, costing $64 billion annually. They lower productivity due to morale issues and time requirements for investigations, all while increasing turnover, paid time off, out of court settlements and jury awards to plaintiffs. Bullying can result in media frenzies, diminished corporate image, damaged personal lives and tarnished careers. No company is immune from the possibility - every company should become aware, proactive and preventive.
