Workshop description
You can’t get away from it. Stories of violence in the workplace have become all too common. While these tragic and dynamic incidents continue to make headlines, many more incidents, less dramatic but equally terrifying, disrupt our own places of employment. It’s just not possible to prevent or eliminate all workplace violence, but steps can be taken to lessen the threat.

This workshop will:

•  Increase employee awareness of workplace violence and related issues
•  Provide a forum in which employees at all levels of the university can discuss issues related to workplace violence
•  Provide the opportunity and the tools needed to evaluate current practices regarding the prevention of and response to threatening or violent situations
•  Help the university begin to develop and discuss alternatives for employees faced with workplace violence issues
