1:1 Connect Confidential workplace support |
Guiding workplaces through
DFV, sexual harassment & bullying
Confidential support for HR, leaders and employees navigating domestic and family violence (DFV), sexual harassment and workplace bullying.
Workplaces have a responsibility to provide a safe, respectful environment, but when employees disclose experiences of domestic violence or sexual harassment, many HR professionals and leaders aren’t sure how to respond.
Workhaven’s 1:1 Connect service provides expert, confidential guidance to help organisations navigate these complex and sensitive issues while prioritising both employee wellbeing and workplace compliance.
Our support will help you make sure employees receive the right assistance, while HR teams and leaders are equipped to handle disclosures effectively, minimise psychosocial hazards in the workplace and meet their legal obligations.
