Safer Venues is a program designed for hospitality staff and operators to enhance awareness, skills, and confidence in actively reducing and intervening in harmful sexual behaviour within licensed venues.
The program offers a comprehensive approach to supporting hospitality, offering in-person workshops and consultations to help integrate sexual violence prevention practices into night-to-night operations.
Safer Venues is available to all hospitality operators and staff in Pōneke, Wellington. This includes venue owners, managers, front of house, door staff and late-night services.
Safer Venues is a joint initiative between Hospitality NZ, RespectEd Aotearoa, and Wellington City Council.
