Domestic abuse policy: have your say

Our Domestic Abuse and Gender Based Violence Policy is open for employees' views.

The policy defines our organisation's position on domestic abuse and all forms of Gender Based Violence which may affect employees in the work place. It also sets out our procedure for supporting employees affected and perpetrators of abuse. 

The Domestic Abuse and Gender Based Violence Policy is available from the consultation hub.

The consultation will close on Friday 20 June 2025 and all feedback is welcomed.

We are a zero-tolerance employer. Should you or a colleague face any of the issues outlined within the policy you can speak in confidence to HR, your line manager, Trade Union Representative or contact our Employee Support Programme (EAP) for support and advice.

A list of a range of support services available is also available on the council’s intranet by searching the A to Z for 'Gender based violence services directory' or 'Domestic abuse'.
