Greetings. I am the lady Bell. As you enter my stately abode, you will quickly see that I am aristocracy through and through. From my gorgeous silky coat, to my graceful movements and deli-cate manners, I re�ect the presence of true royalty. I prefer tranquil settings, and like to gaze upon the court’s proceedings from a high perch, secure in my throne. I generally don’t like to mix with my feline friends too much, and am not afraid to voice displea-sure at an unsolicited visit. True to my royal roots, I am dazzled by all things sparkly, and am often enticed by shimmering toys. I await the perfect human to take me to my new empire — could it be you?
PET OF THE WEEK
Dear Working Wise:I’m worried about my friend at work. She’s distracted and nervous all the time. I know there are problems in her marriage and I suspect that her partner is verbally abusive and may even hit her, but she won’t leave him and it seems to be getting worse. She’s also close to losing her job, because she’s always away due to her stress. What can I do? Signed Worried at Work

Dear Worried:
No one likes to talk about family violence and most workplaces treat it as a private matter. But no matter how hard we try to ignore it, the e�ects of family violence creep into our workplaces, causing: • higher turnover• lower productivity• higher absenteeism• higher workplace instability• increased risk of alcohol and drug abuse• increased risk of violence in the workplace
Unfortunately, Alberta has the fourth-highest rate of family violence among the provinces. The social, health, and criminal justice costs of family violence are estimated at more than $4 billion per year in Canada.
Not many years ago, suspected alcohol and drug abuse was regarded as a private matter. When the links between substance abuse and productivity were clearly established, though, many workplaces responded with programs to help employees deal with these issues. In a similar way, programs, resources and support o�ered in the workplace can play an important role in preventing family violence. Safety is the priority. If you or someone in the workplace is in immediate danger, call 911.
Ideally, employers should have policies and procedures in place so that the workplace knows how to respond to sta� that may be in a family violence situation. As a supervisor or co-worker, you can o�er support in the following ways: • Name what you saw/heard, e.g., “I noticed that you’ve been away from the o�ce more than usual, and I am concerned about you. Is everything ok”? • Acknowledge the danger. Don’t downplay the situation or suggest the person try harder.• If your co-worker denies being abused, let them know that the door is open if they want to talk about their situation. • Listen carefully without being judgmental.• If they disclose abuse, tell them that you believe them and acknowledge their feelings.• Let the person know that no one deserves to be abused, that family violence is a crime, and that they are not responsible for the abuser’s behaviour.• Don’t o�er advice or try to �x the situation. • Encourage them to seek professional help through an employee-wellness programs or community family violence agency. • Ask if they want your help accessing services, but respect their decision if they say “no”.• Keep yourself safe – don’t confront the abusive person.
You can also help raise awareness of family violence resources:• Display information in your workplace about family violence services.• Sponsor a workplace event to raise awareness in November during Family Violence Prevention Month humanservices.alberta.-ca/abuse-bullying.
For more tips and advice:• Call the toll-free Family Violence Info Line at 310 1818.• Read the Family Violence Prevention tip sheet on the ALIS web site: alis.alberta.ca.
The Alberta Council of Womens’ Shelters also o�ers an Employer Toolkit at www.acws.ca/an-employers-toolkit.
