State Employees In Ohio Undergoing Training To Spot Domestic Violence

(ONN) – State government employees in Ohio are getting the chance to learn better ways for spotting and reporting domestic violence signs in the workplace.

It’s through an enhanced web-based training program developed by the Ohio Departments of Health and Administrative Services aimed at giving employees a better understanding of domestic violence, resources available and ways to report abuse.

The training was updated to reflect Governor DeWine’s executive order in January on domestic violence policy in state government.

It will be mandatory for all managers, with the goal of equipping them to talk to staff members who may be experiencing or causing harm in a relationship.

All state workers have the option of taking the course.
