Did you know that all workers can access up to 10 days of paid family violence leave per year? In 2022, unions won a significant victory by securing 10 days Family and Domestic Violence (FDV) leave as a national standard for all workers. Staff covered by the VGSA and TAFE Agreement have up to 20 days. A recent review found that while this new entitlement is working positively for those who have used it, FDV leave is under-utilised due in part to a lack of worker and employer awareness of the entitlement. You may not ever need to use this leave in your career. But you could be a huge help to a colleague or friend experiencing FDV. Read and bookmark these resources, as you never know when they will be needed: - FDV leave (National entitlement): https://lnkd.in/gv_pk5db - Family violence leave under the VGSA: https://lnkd.in/gfVv67rC - Family violence leave in under the TAFE agreement: https://lnkd.in/gfqD9hHc
