Workplace Violence Mitigation Planning
The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports an average of 564 workplace homicides annually
Despite these statistics, fewer than 30 percent of employers have developed a workplace violence mitigation program or policy. This leaves Employees observing early warning signs of concerning behavior with no well-defined course of action they should follow in reporting these observations. Failure to develop policies and procedures in handling these matters can leave Managers ill equipped and ineffective in preventing workplace violence from occurring.
