- Domestic violence is not tolerated or excused; the workplace promotes and supports respectful behaviour within domestic/family relationships
- All employees know what to do if a work colleague is experiencing or perpetrating domestic violence
- A best practice workplace response to domestic violence exceeds legal obligations under the Domestic Violence – Victims Protection Act 2018 and other laws
