BE
SAFE: Preventing Workplace Violence
Keep
all your employees educated on handling potentially disruptive
and even dangerous threats from co-workers.
Think about it. Every workday, 723 workers
are attacked and another 43,800 harassed. Over 1,000 workers
are victims of homicide - at work - annually. Approximately
two million assaults and threats of violence occur in The
workplace each and every year. In The pressure cooker of The
contemporary workplace, violent behavior can erupt at any
time. Terminated, overworked, or stressed employees can and
will pose very real threats. You, your employees, and even
visitors to your company are at risk - every day. Do people
within your organization know - really know - how to head
off workplace threats, how to stay safe?
