From the supplier: Every company needs to take at least basic precautions to minimize the risk that workplace violence entails. The crime occurs indiscriminately and claims nearly 1,000 lives every year. Its unpredictability should push companies to plan a course of action immediately. More so since companies that have failed to implement adequate measures against threats have been found liable in court for injuries caused by violent employees. A well-conceived plan can make the difference between acting effectively and reacting arbitrarily.
