Violence in the workplace has become a common social phenomenon. Predicting it is challenging and stopping it is very difficult. This work argues that it can be managed, and uses case studies, guidelines, and offers practical suggestions for dealing with this problem.
Managing Violence in the Workplace is a prescription that contains many lists of "do's" and "don'ts" and "how to's" for proactive and reactive responses to workplace violence. The authors have analyzed numerous incidents in the workplace and constructed "how to" guidelines. Be prepared for managing workplace violence. Develop procedures to reduce the potential for violence, create contingency plans, fulfill your legal and moral obligation to employees and the public, reduce your company's liability, and provide a safer environment for all.

Who can benefit from Managing Violence in the Workplace? Any organizational executive, risk manager, security, or human resource professional... anyone working to create a comprehensive, organizational program for response to potential and actual incidents of workplace violence.

Dr. Thomas K. Capozzoli, R. Steve McVey
