How can workplace violence hazards be reduced?
In most workplaces where risk factors can be identified, the risk
of assault can be prevented or minimized if employers take
appropriate precautions. One of the best protections employers
can offer their workers is to establish a zero-tolerance policy
toward workplace violence. This policy should cover all workers,
patients, clients, visitors, contractors, and anyone else who
may come in contact with company personnel.
By assessing their worksites, employers can identify methods
for reducing the likelihood of incidents occurring. OSHA
believes that a well written and implemented Workplace
Violence Prevention Program, combined with engineering
controls, administrative controls and training can reduce the
incidence of workplace violence in both the private sector and
Federal workplaces.
This can be a separate workplace violence prevention program
or can be incorporated into an injury and illness prevention
program, employee handbook, or manual of standard operating
procedures. It is critical to ensure that all workers know the
policy and understand that all claims of workplace violence will
be investigated and remedied promptly. In addition, OSHA
encourages employers to develop additional methods as
necessary to protect employees in high risk industries.
Where can I get information on workers' rights and employers'
responsibilities?
This information can help you properly prepare to eliminate or
reduce the likelihood of violence at your workplace. For other
valuable worker protection information, such as Workers'
Rights, Employer Responsibilities and other services OSHA
offers, read OSHA's Workers page.

| Who is at risk of workplace violence? Nearly 2 million American workers report having been victims of workplace violence each year. Unfortunately, many more cases go unreported. The truth is, workplace violence can strike anywhere, anytime, and no one is immune. Research has identified factors that may increase the risk of violence for some workers at certain worksites. Such factors include exchanging money with the public and working with volatile, unstable people. Working alone or in isolated areas may also contribute to the potential for violence. Providing services and care, and working where alcohol is served may also impact the likelihood of violence. Additionally, time of day and location of work, such as working late at night or in areas with high crime rates, are also risk factors that should be considered when addressing issues of workplace violence. Among those with higher risk are workers who exchange money with the public, delivery drivers, healthcare professionals, public service workers, customer service agents, law enforcement personnel, and those who work alone or in small groups. |
