DV Workplace Safety Plan

A DV Workplace Safety Plan sets out how your business supports a worker affected by domestic violence. It names the designated support person and records the plan agreed with the worker.

It captures the worker, manager or supervisor, representative and emergency contact details, and lists the measures a plan may include, such as alerting security or police, changes to work schedules or location, parking, escorts and IT concerns.

A short risk assessment asks the worker about medical needs, access by the abuser, vulnerable circumstances, other workers at risk and support services, and records the control measures agreed.
