Workplace Safety
- Tell somebody. Decide who at work you will inform of your situation, especially if you have a Protection From Abuse (PFA) order. This may include office security if available. Provide a picture of the abuser if possible. It is your right to request and expect confidentiality from the people you tell.
- Screen your calls. Arrange to have someone screen and log your telephone calls if possible.
- Make a safety plan. Create a safety plan for when you enter and leave your work place. Have someone escort you to your vehicle or other transportation.
If you and your abuser work at the same place, discuss with your supervisor your options regarding scheduling, safety precautions, employee/family benefits.
