Proposed Project

    Program Effectiveness Evaluation of Workplace Intervention for 
Intimate Partner Violence (IPV)--New--National Center for Injury 
Prevention and Control, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 
(CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    Intimate partner violence (IPV) affects a substantial number of 
Americans, and there has recently been increasing recognition of the 
impact it has on the workplace. In addition to direct impacts 
(batterers often stalk or even attack IPV victims at their place of 
work), IPV has indirect impacts on the workplace environment through 
lost productivity due to medical leave, absenteeism, and fear and 
distraction on the part of victims and coworkers. The Centers for 
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has employed contractor support to 
evaluate an ongoing workplace IPV prevention program being implemented 
at a national corporation. The purpose of the proposed evaluation is to 
document in detail the workplace IPV prevention activities delivered by 
the company, to determine the impact of these activities on short-term 
and long-term outcomes, and to determine the cost-effectiveness of the 
program. All managers at the corporation will be screened to assess 
training experiences. Then, more in-depth surveys will be done among 
managers who have not had the corporation's IPV training. We will 
survey those 500 managers at baseline, and 6 and 12 months later. 
Manager surveys will focus on knowledge/awareness of IPV and company 
resources for IPV and number of referrals for IPV assistance. We will 
also survey employees of those managers using an anonymous web-based 
survey at baseline and 12 months later to assess their self-evaluated 
productivity, absenteeism, and perceptions of manager behavior. We will 
compare the responses of managers (and their employees) who received 
the IPV training in the study period (i.e., sometime between the 
baseline and 12 month surveys) with untrained managers. The study will 
provide CDC and employers information about the potential effectiveness 
and cost-effectiveness of workplace IPV intervention strategies.
    There are no costs to respondents except their time to participate 
in the interview.
