Trigger Warning: Safer Spaces deals with a serious subject matter. The content can invoke a trigger response in those who have previously experienced trauma. Think of a Trigger warning as a consent button for content. It puts choice back in the hands of survivors. We aim to be sensitive and therefore you will note trigger warnings in all of our online content. Within our Safer Spaces course, we will also direct to support resources whenever appropriate.
Please note that Part 2: Safer Spaces for Supervisors - Investigations & Reporting is still in development at go2HR and may be available May 2026 onwards.
Who Should Attend?
This course is for anyone working in tourism or hospitality. The content is developed for employers, supervisors and managerial staff. Safer Spaces for employees and workers can be found here.
