Summary

"Violence in the Workplace"

A recent US Department of Justice statistic indicates that over one million individuals are victims of some form of violence in the workplace each year.

Addressing employees before their behavior escalates can reduce the risk of violence by as much as 90 percent. Tips to improve the results of this meeting include: projecting calmness, using delaying tactics to give employees time to cool down and accepting criticism.

Every company should develop a crisis management plan in the event a situation escalates to violence.
