Workplace Violence: Reduce the Threats Against Your Institution's Employees
Quick Overview
 |
Do you know how prevalent workplace violence is?
There are over 1.7 million instances of workplace violence each year in the U.S., including simple and aggravated assaults, robbery, rape and homicide. In addition, issues surrounding workplace violence include threats, non-fatal injuries, lost work productivity, legal liability, economic impact, and other costs. The burden of workplace violence is not assumed by only the victims of the violence, but also by their co-workers, families and employers.
Register for this webinar for exclusive advice from an attorney and crisis management consultant who has an extensive background in dealing with issues of violence. Gain her insight on how to effectively prevent, respond to and recover from an incident of workplace violence, including:

Could that abuse pour over into the workplace?
Do you ever have an employee work late? Imagine that she's the only one left in the office, which she has left a thousand times on her own. As she reaches her car, exhausted, she fumbles for her keys. As she unlocks her door, she is surprised by a man who was crouching beside the car. He proceeds to rape her and leave her to be found by the security guard as he makes his rounds of the parking lot.
Or, what about the disgruntled ex-employee who comes back, wanting to "get even" with the person who fired him, or worse -- the fellow employees who "got him fired?"
