Collins Foods Commitment to address domestic & Family Violence
At Collins, we have People at the Heart, and we’re here to support anyone who is directly or indirectly affected by Domestic and Family Violence whether it is happening through a relationship or broader family.
Domestic and Family Violence is a widespread and serious issue. We care about our team, and we want you to know that if you are impacted by Domestic and Family Violence (whether it is happening in your relationship or in your broader family), the Collins Family is here to support you.
Our approach
Our approach to Domestic and Family Violence is supported by the Collins Foods leadership team, and we have partnered with WorkHaven to create this website and our other Domestic and Family Violence resources. In this video, Jo Mason (CEO, WorkHaven), Drew O’Malley (CEO, Collins Foods) and Dawn Linaker (Chief People Officer, Collins Foods) talk about our approach to Domestic and Family Violence and the support that is available.
