Ireland has taken a significant step forward in addressing domestic violence by introducing Domestic Violence Paid Leave. Employers have a duty of care for the health, safety and wellbeing of their staff and are in a strong position to create a safe and supportive workplace environment.
Domestic Violence (DV) Paid Leave allows for a total of 5 days of paid time off work. This progressive initiative acknowledges the impact of domestic violence on victims' lives and aims to provide them with the necessary time and resources to seek help and support.
Recognising the need for specialised support, our expert team has developed this policy resource pack and we extend our services to organisations seeking assistance in implementing Domestic Violence Leave and or developing a Domestic Violence Leave policy.
This Policy Resource Pack includes:
- Domestic Violence Policy
- Checklist for supporting an employee experiencing domestic abuse
- Workplace Adjustment Plan
- Domestic Violence Leave FAQ
- Various Template letters to employees
IMPORTANT NOTE: All records pertaining to Domestic Violence Leave must be securely stored, kept confidential, and retained only as necessary. Any employee who receives disclosures, whether initially or as part of risk management, must maintain confidentiality. Where an unauthorised disclosure takes place, the disciplinary procedure may be invoked.
