Working to help people experiencing family and domestic violence
The Family and domestic violence page on the Services Australia Website has information for community organisations and other government departments outlining how the Services Australia can help customers who are in violent situations.
Social workers have a key role to play in directly and indirectly assisting customers who are experiencing family and domestic violence. Social workers, as the family and domestic violence contact person in the service centre and Smart Centre, ensure that staff are familiar with policies that are implemented and reviewed on a regular basis. They also ensure that appropriate referral/consultation procedures are in place to ensure that customers experiencing violence receive prompt assistance.
