How to curb workplace violence
Notes that workplace violence is increasing, and new structures and policies that focus on preventing employee violence are necessary. Concern over the danger of violence on the job creates a new challenge for supervisors in all fields. There is no reason to panic; however, there is just cause for prudent action to increase safety and decrease the likelihood of any violent eruption in the workplace. Preventive measures include early identification of problems, decreasing the risk of disputes and thoughtful policies on handling stressful situations. Crisis preparedness requires tough self-assessment and tougher trade-offs, but the pay-off is clear. Creating systems that defuse the time bombs of stress and violence on the job is an investment in peace of mind for employers and workers alike.
