Our Commitment to Support

Domestic and family violence can disrupt lives in many ways, including physical, emotional, and financial impacts. We stand by our employees and their families, providing assistance and understanding in times of need. Our Domestic and Family Violence Policy is designed to help employees feel safe at work, understand the support available, and access the resources they need.

Key Aspects of the Policy

1. Confidentiality and Respect
   All conversations and disclosures regarding domestic or family violence are treated with the utmost confidentiality. We respect the privacy of our employees and ensure that their personal situations are handled sensitively and discreetly.
2. Leave and Flexible Work Arrangements
   Employees affected by domestic or family violence may need time off or flexible work arrangements. Our policy includes provisions for paid leave specifically for these situations, and we work closely with affected employees to adapt their work schedules as needed. This allows them time to seek support, attend medical or legal appointments, and take care of personal matters.
3. Support and Resources
   We provide access to resources and contacts for professional counseling and support services. Peritos aims to connect employees with trusted agencies and services that can offer specialized assistance and guidance during challenging times.
4. Training and Awareness
   We are committed to building a workplace culture of awareness and sensitivity. Regular training sessions for managers and team leaders help them understand how to identify signs of domestic and family violence, approach discussions with empathy, and refer employees to appropriate support channels.

Why This Matters to Us

Domestic and family violence affects everyone—not just individuals but also workplaces and communities. At Peritos, we are dedicated to building an inclusive and understanding workplace where our team members feel valued and supported. This policy is one way we uphold these values, providing help and hope to those facing difficult situations.
