Description

Educate your audience about workplace violence with this informative pamphlet. Workplace violence is any threatening behavior, physical assault, or verbal abuse which takes place in the work setting. Workplace violence is a very severe issue emerging throughout the United States. One in six violent crimes take place at work. More shockingly, workplace murder is the leading killer of working females, accounting for 35 percent of their fatal work injuries. Additionally, workplace murder is the second leading killer of working males. With such appalling statistics, it is extremely pertinent for Americans to understand the realms of workplace violence.

With this brochure, the reader will learn the dismal facts about workplace violence. They will also learn that incidents of violence can take place at any workplace, and in many forms. The main focus is to educate the audience on how to determine signs of and prevent workplace violence. Moreover, many factors can heighten the risk of violent incidents in the workplace. From late night working and working in highly stressful conditions to the absence of having a strong and well publicized disciplinary policy. Readers are called to action through clear procedural steps for stopping workplace violence, making the workplace safer, and they are shown what to do if there is suspicion of a violent person. Most importantly, the reader is advised to get involved with the employer and human resources department, especially if he or she has been victimized.
