Workplace Violence... for California Employees Workplace Violence... for California Employees

When employees spend so many of their waking hours at work, there are times they are bound to have some “bad days”. But when someone’s temper gets out of hand and they become aggressive or violent, it puts everyone’s safety in jeopardy. And that’s not the only type of potential workplace violence to worry about. There are also external threats, like unhappy customers or attempted robberies. And while potential violence often leads to panic and chaos... it doesn't have to be that way. So it’s important that every employee knows how to anticipate, prevent and report workplace violence.

MARCOM's course on "Workplace Violence… for California Employees" discusses the different types of violence employees can encounter in the workplace, the “warning signs” they can look for, and how to handle aggressive or violent behavior if it does occur.

Topics covered in this course include:

• The definition of “violence”
• How to recognize signs of potential violence
• Handling aggressive behavior
• How to deal with violent behavior
• Implementing a “Workplace Violence Prevention Plan”
• …and more.
