OVERVIEW According to the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, 5% of U. S. businesses experience violence at work yearly. The percentage of workplace violence increases to 50% for organizations with 1,000 employees. The FBI stated that in 2014 an active shooting incident occurred, on average, once every three weeks. However, given the size of the U. S., the chances of being a victim of a workplace shooting is statistically low. These statistics capture the most severe types of workplace violence but certainly not the most prevalent forms. OSHA reports that roughly two million workers report incidents of violence at work each year such as harassment, threats, aggressive and belligerent behavior to name a few, which does not include the majority of cases that go unreported.
WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND
Considering the news and staggering events of mass shootings of the last several months, violence at work might be foremost in our minds. Most of us think of workplace violence occurring only in the workplace setting, but the threatening conduct is broader and may encompass behavior occurring outside the actual workplace. Even domestic violence creates challenges for all employers.
