Coercive control is a form of abuse that can involve threats, humiliation and intimidation – and cases are on the rise. ONS recently reported 43,774 offences of coercive control in the UK, an increase from 33,954 in 2021. In this session, we will look at what manipulation and coercive control entails, the huge mental wellbeing toll it can leave upon victims – and how workplaces can recognise warning signs to offer support to their staff.
