Workplace Violence


Workplace violence can take many forms and can have an enormously negative impact on employees. Aggressive behavior by an employee toward other employees, management and customers can range from annoying or disruptive behavior such as slamming doors and storming around the office, to violent criminal acts, such as a physical touching or armed assault. In addition to the negative psychological impact workplace violence can have on employees morale and productivity, employers face several additional risks in the form of duties and liabilities,
including respondeat superior liability, negligent hiring, supervision or retention claims, hostile work environment allegations and premises liability.
