Workplace Violence

Violence on the job is a major concern in today's fast-paced, high-pressured work environment. While it is estimated that nearly 25% of all workplace violence goes unreported, the number of known violent incidents is staggering.

 Preventing Violence on the Job

 

  • According to the U.S. Department of Justice, there are 5,500 acts of workplace violence each day 
  • There are more than 1 million episodes of workplace violence reported in the U.S. each year 
  • Homicide is the number one killer of women on the job 
  • Workplace violence costs U.S. businesses more than $5 billion each year

Learning who commits workplace violence, why it occurs, where it happens, and what types of violence are perpetrated on the job is often a surprise to even the most seasoned manager.  XBRM provides training, program development, and crisis team preparation to address the many sources and types of workplace violence--even violence that may reach telecommuters and others working from their own homes! 

XBRM brings your organization the state-or-the-art in workplace violence prevention training, planning and program development.  Our comprehensive approach helps decision-makers understand: 

  • Best practices in responding to threats and episodes of violence in the workplace

 

  • Interpersonal and environmental triggers of workplace violence

 

  • Pre-incident indicators and early warning signs of potential violence

 

  • Prediction of violence and threat assessment strategies

 

  • De-escalation of agitated or threatening persons

 

  • Legal risks of over- or under reacting to potential violence

 

  • Post-incident support for the victims and witnesses of violence on the job
