Book excerpt: Since the 1980s, violence has been recognized as a leading cause of occupational mortality and morbidity. On average, 1.7 million workers are injured each year, and more than 800 die as a result of workplace violence (WPV). These tragic deaths and injuries stress the need for a proactive and collaborative WPV prevention effort at the national level. As part of its WPV Research and Prevention Initiative during 2003, the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) convened a series of stakeholder meetings that focused on various types of WPV and the industries and occupations at risk. For example, separate meetings addressed domestic violence in the workplace, violence in health care facilities, violence in retail settings, and violence against law enforcement and security professionals. The purpose of these meetings was to bring together subject matter experts from business, academia, government, and labor organizations to discuss current progress, research gaps, and collaborative efforts in addressing WPV. One of the recurring discussion points that emerged from the meetings was the need for a national conference on WPV prevention. In November 2004, NIOSH assembled a diverse group with representatives from various disciplines and organizations that have a stake in reducing the toll of WPV. This landmark conference—Partnering in Workplace Violence Prevention: Translating Research to Practice—was held in Baltimore, Maryland, on November 15–17, 2004. The sessions were structured to give participants an opportunity to discuss the current state of national research and prevention efforts. The intent was to draw out their best professional judgments on (1) identification and implementation of effective prevention programs and strategies, (2) identification of barriers to prevention and steps for overcoming them, (3) current research and communication needs, and (4) the advancement of research and prevention through effective partnerships. This report summarizes discussions that took place during the conference.

Download or read book The Workplace Violence Prevention Handbook written by Don Philpott and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-08-06 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Workplace violence can occur anywhere: schools, office buildings, hospitals, or late-night convenience stores. It can occur day or night, inside or outside of the workplace, and it can include threats, harassment, bullying, stalking, verbal abuse, and intimidation. Left unchecked, workplace violence can lead to physical assaults and homicide. This updated edition of The Workplace Violence Prevention Handbook tackles this often overlooked but pervasive problem and provides a comprehensive five-step process for understanding and preventing it. The Workplace Violence Prevention Handbook looks at the extent of the problem, examines some of the myths surrounding it, and provides early warning and detection signs, best prevention polices and proven defusing, protection, and containment techniques and strategies. At the end of each section there are a combination of case studies, scenarios, worksheets, and checklists to assist you in understanding the steps needed to plan, develop, and execute an effective workplace violence prevention program. A workplace violence prevention plan is a must. Apart from the legal and liability issues, it just makes sense to protect the organization’s most valuable assets—the workforce. For many organizations there are added benefits from implementing a violence prevention plan. During the risk assessment phase, you frequently discover areas of vulnerability that can be remedied and practices that can be improved. This can lead to increased productivity and efficiency, which could have an ongoing impact on your bottom line. The biggest benefit, however, is in increased safety for everyone using that workplace.

Download or read book Experts' Consensus of Osha's Guidelines for Workplace Violence Prevention Program Effectiveness written by Javier Berezdivin and published by ProQuest. This book was released on 2008 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this research was to investigate if a panel of workplace violence (WPV) experts were of the same opinion that the five recommended OSHA guidelines were effective elements to use in a WPV-prevention program. Second, the researcher sought to develop a comprehensive list of elements for an effective WPV program and to explore the experts' opinions as to the ranked importance and feasibility of the identified elements. Finally, the study compared the list of elements developed from this study with the five OSHA guidelines. A two-round online Delphi instrument was used to survey a panel of 27 experts in the field of WPV prevention. the experts invited to participate were chosen as a result of their professional experience, publications, conference presentations, and personal recommendations. the first round yielded general opinions as to how experts defined WPV program effectiveness, how they measured a program's effectiveness, and their opinion on the effectiveness of the current five OSHA guidelines for WPV-prevention in both retail sales establishments and healthcare settings. the responses generated in the first round helped in the construction of the second round by providing a list of elements used in WPV prevention programs. the second round asked experts to rate 76 elements in seven distinct categories of violence-prevention strategies on a 5-point Likert scale. the results provided substantial consensus for the effectiveness of the five OSHA guidelines and generated a comprehensive list of 76 elements to be considered when establishing an effective WPV program. Experts expressed strong agreement on the importance of 75 of the elements and expressed a weak level of agreement on the importance of only one element, peer-support programs. Regarding the feasibility of the elements, experts expressed a weak level of agreement on only two elements, outplacement services for terminated employees and the training of other individuals outside an organization, (such as clients, patients, and/or customers). It is recommended that empirically-driven research be conducted on an ongoing basis in a wide variety of industry sectors to lend further support for the effectiveness of each of these elements.
