Financial and economic abuse are a form of domestic violence, and anyone can be a victim. Join us for this discussion and hear from Lizzy Dobres, Policy & Practice Manager at Women’s Aid, who will discuss what economic abuse is, and its impact.
We’ll talk through some practical advice around how reps can support domestic abuse survivors at work who have experienced financial abuse and we’ll discuss what practical steps reps can take to ensure their employers have robust duty of care support mechanisms in place at work.
This event was hosted by the TUC using the Crowdcast platform. Accord is not responsible for this material.

In this webinar from the Bank Workers Charity, we’ll see how cancer is becoming a wellbeing priority in the workplace. We'll also look at the issues faced by someone living with cancer and consider the kinds of workplace support that can be most helpful to them. This is a free webinar and open to all members.
Every demographic has its own critical issues when it comes to healthcare. For men, two things stand out. The suicide rate is worryingly high, whilst prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in the UK. The persistence of these health issues and others among men is aggravated by their reluctance to visit their GP, to seek help from a counsellor or to ask for support. This is a free webinar, open to all members.
We've teamed up with the Bank Workers Charity to look at how we can create a work culture where it is safe to come forward to talk about abuse and access support. We also look at examples of the support available through the Bank Workers Charity. This is a free webinar, open to all members.
