Family Violence & Mental Health

This one-day training workshop is designed for HR professionals who recognise that workplaces have a role to play in supporting employees experiencing mental health and family violence issues. It will equip attendees with an understanding of the knowledge, skills and best practice principles required to better respond to these complex issues.

The first half of the workshop provides HR professionals with theoretical and practical training to understand and recognise mental health issues in the workplace. The second half of the day will equip attendees with a deeper understanding of family violence and the ways in which HR can support employees across their organisation. All attendees will be provided with a Workshop Manual and set of Resources for HR Managers.

This workshop is led by Clinical Psychologist Dr Kayleigh Young.
