Topic Background
In the wake of recent tragedies involving gun violence that we’ve witnessed in the news, it becomes more important that employers provide education and training to their employees. As a first step, leaders and corporate specialists need to understand the warning signs of potential workplace violence situations so that they are better able to de-escalate appropriately and – hopefully – avoid an active threat situation. To ensure the best preparation, it’s also important to prepare for, respond, and react to possible active threat situations.
Unfortunately, active threat incidents are not uncommon news items. Employees and former employees are stressed, upset, and frustrated and sometimes lash out in violent ways. Potential workplace violence clues are often overlooked or discounted by onlookers and co-workers for a variety of reasons. Tragically, turning away from these indications can result in dire consequences. Based on thorough analysis by law enforcement experts, we know that there are specific steps that you can take to mitigate workplace violence situations. However, if you find yourself in an active shooter situation, do you know what to do and how to react?
