Beneath the Surface: Uncovering Employee Perspectives on Workplace Violence

The rise of violent incidents in the workplace has many employees feeling anxious about their safety. OSHA reports nearly two million U.S. workers experience workplace violence as a pervasive threat. This uptick in violent incidents is fueling states, like California, to issue new workplace violence laws requiring employers to implement a written workplace violence prevention plan, provide annual training on the plan to employees and maintain a log of incidents of workplace violence.

In our whitepaper, “Beneath the Surface: Uncovering Employee Perspectives on Workplace Violence”, Traliant takes a closer look at how concerned employees are about the potential of violence occurring at their place of work. Upon surveying more than 1,000 employees at US companies with more than 100 employees, we found that the specter of violence in the workplace looms larger than most realize. As part of its findings, the whitepaper cites employee worries and what employers can do to address their anxieties to provide a more safe and secure workplace environment.
