| Summary |
Workplace Safety: Establishing an Effective Violence Prevention Program includes a powerful model on how to overcome organizational rationalization, objection, and denial when confronted with proposing a workplace violence protection program. The book offers real-life cases studies on how violence was successfully avoided using the book's program, and also shows how to recognize and report precursor behaviors that precede violence. In addition, the book demonstrates proven methods for properly, and effectively, responding to violence should it occur, and tactfully managing the aftermath. |
