From Types of Abuse Defined to Signs of An Abusive Relationship, we've assembled a wide variety of general information on the subject of partner violence, including research findings.

The purpose of this article is to examine the literature on violence against women and employment. After a brief discussion of the definition and consequences of intimate partner violence, the article reviews the research and related literatures to describe the (a) types of job interference tactics used by abusers, (b) employee-level consequences of partner violence, (c) victimized employee responses to intimate partner violence, (d) organizational-level consequences of partner violence and (e) employer responses to intimate partner violence. Further research directions and workplace implications are discussed. It appears courtesy of Jennifer E. Swanberg, Ph.D, a faculty member at the University of Kentucky.
