Description

Workplace violence is on the increase. Headlines report of yet another disgruntled customer or employee who returns to the workplace and wreaks havoc. From fast-food restaurants to post offices to schoolrooms to lawyer's offices, the list goes on and on. Radical politics, too, has claimed victims in atrocities that are well known.  In this pioneering and comprehensive study of workplace violence, Raymond Flannery discusses the nature of such violence and the kinds of criminal acts committed. Next he reviews the five types of worksite assailants and uses actual cases to demonstrate the impact on the employee victim. Further, he takes the reader into the mind of the assailant to better alert employees and employers about potential problems.  The author distills the scientific information that has been gathered on workplace violence and utilizes the latest medical and psychological research to develop specific strategies for risk management. This involves special pre-incident training to prepare workers should an incident occur as well as ways to help employees develop skills in stress management. Also included are practical suggestions to make the work environment more secure. Despite these precautions, should a violent episode occur, Dr. Flannery provides an organized program for dealing with violence and its traumatic aftermath.  In an era of increasing levels of violence, the mind set of "it can't happen here" is both incorrect and dangerous. Incorrect because it is happening in many worksites with increasing frequency. Dangerous because this attitude places everyone at unnecessary risk.  Companies and employers are not helpless in the face of violence and crime at work. There is much more that can be done and that information is contained in these pages.
