The problem you're seeing

Family violence affects men across every industry and every workplace. Most of them will never tell you about it. They'll show up, do their jobs, and manage the fallout alone — because they don't believe anyone at work would understand, and they don't know where to go for help.

Men experiencing family violence and coercive control are more likely to be:

• distracted, 
• exhausted, and 
• emotionally volatile. 

They take more sick days. They make more mistakes. They're at greater risk of injury on site. Some leave jobs they've held for years because they can't hold things together any longer. Others stay and deteriorate quietly until something breaks.

Most of this goes unrecognised. The signs look like performance issues, attitude problems, or personal instability — and they get treated that way. 

Managers don't know what they're looking at. HR doesn't have the tools to respond. And the man himself often doesn't have the language to explain what's happening at home, let alone ask for help.

Why this matters for your organisation

Australian employers now carry clear obligations around psychosocial safety in the workplace. Family violence is a recognised psychosocial hazard. When it goes unsupported, it shows up as absenteeism, presenteeism, turnover, workplace incidents, and workers compensation claims. The cost of doing nothing is already in your business — you're just not seeing where it sits.

Employee Assistance Programs are a starting point, but they offer general counselling. They are not built to address the specific dynamics of coercive control, the tactical abuse that follows separation, or the emotional shutdown that years of psychological violence creates in men. Most men who call an EAP for family violence will speak to someone who has no specialist understanding of what they're going through.

Stand Again fills that gap.

What Stand Again provides

Stand Again delivers education, coaching, and resources specifically for male victims of family violence and coercive control. 

Our partnership packages equip your organisation with the materials, training, and direct support services to reach the men in your workforce who are struggling in silence. Each package includes physical workplace resources designed to be placed in break rooms, locker rooms, and common areas — giving men a private pathway to help without needing to disclose to anyone at work.

At higher tiers, your people leaders receive specialist training on recognising and responding to family violence in male employees, and your staff gain access to confidential one-on-one coaching with a specialist who understands exactly what they're dealing with.

Your organisation can change what happens next for these men.
