It’s little wonder why workplace violence is quickly becoming a greater concern to organizations and company leaders. The troubled economy has increased workplace suicides, shootings sparked by layoffs, violent conflicts with shoplifters, and racially charged rampages. Criminals are targeting a broader array of commercial establishments in work­place robberies. Liability and risks are growing from legislation to protect bullying victims to new guns-at-work laws.

Threats, best practices, prevention tools, and the regulatory environment are evolving. This best-selling IOFM Research Report helps you adapt to changes in the law; implement new tools, strategies, and knowledge; and incorporate lessons learned to strengthen existing violence prevention efforts.

Three years? five? ten?).

You'll also get more than 45 figures and tables detailing the latest data on workplace violence data and benchmarks of company prevention programs, for example:
