Hub You - Workplace Violence is a Form of Terrorism
It's the question you dreamed about when you were ten years old. It's the question your parents nagged you about during high school. It's the question that stresses most of us out more and more the older we get. "What do you want to be when you grow up?"After living on a college campus for three semesters now, I'm realizing that most people have some really screwed up ways of figuring out the answer to that question. I have friends who are studying

Many years ago I attended a seminar about advertising. The guest speaker was a well-known advertising copywriter from Chicago. He quoted his favorite ad. "WANTED, WATCHDOG.ONE THAT BITES."That just about sums up my feelings about advertising. I simply am not switched on to hard-hitting advertising which is full of exaggerations, half-truths and the like. It takes much more than that to convince me to want to buy the product.That Watchdog ad i

Federal Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA)
Did you know that the Federal Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) requires employers who discover that an employee has threatened violence against managers, supervisors, or other employees may have to take certain preventive steps? OSHA's General Duty Clause requires employers to provide employees with places of employment that are free of hazards that may cause or result in death or serious physical injury. Have you heard of a Worksite Assessment or Analysis for the determination of Risk Factors? If not, it might be time to learn more about this process. Failure to correct a hazard or to take corrective action in the face of an employee’s concern for their safety and security could result in a Negligence Civil Law Suit.
Report by the Department of Justice
The Department of Justice reports about a million reported incidents of workplace violence each year. What about the other incidents that go unreported or handled by you as business as usual?

Recently an entrepreneur had considered the possibility of taking a new type of jogging light, which would not need a battery from concept to market. The product made sense because everyone who walks or jogs at night would love to have one and it has applications for security professionals, neighborhood watch groups, space and probably even military. The entrepreneur was a salesman in a large corporation. He was determined to sell the product via TV Infome

A very effective and persuasive tactic when selling something is to promote its benefits as well as its features.Very simply, features are what something has; benefits are what those features do for you.For example, if you’re selling your used Oldsmobile, one of the features you might mention is its large trunk.If you focus only on the feature, you’ll say, “This car has a large trunk.” (Yawn) But if you promote that feature with its be

Why The Concern?
If you ask me, Workplace Violence during and in its aftermath is a form of Terrorism at best. Victims are traumatized, employer's businesses are threatened because performance suffers, production and efficiency drops, morale is decreased, there is an increase in days off and injury compensation claims, employees mysteriously request transfers and some even resign and employers can be sued for failing to provide for a safe workplace by the victims and witnesses who might be traumatized. Remember, while some might think the victim is making more out of the complaint, the courts do not think so when you do nothing to abate risk or reduce its impact.
The Court's View
In case you might be interested, out of court awards to victims of workplace violence involving serious injury or death range around the $400, 000 dollar mark. Jury awards can exceed several million dollars more. Where are you in the over all picture; proactive or reactive? Are you interested yet? The Bureau of Justice and Labor Statistics reported that an estimated 1.8 million workdays are lost by victims of workplace violence each year.
Identifying Risk Factors
Your employees are at risk if they work exchanging money; work alone or in small groups at night or during early morning hours; guard or transport money or valuable property; perform public safety functions in communities; work with patients at hospitals, homecare; clients, passengers, customers or vendors; work in high crime neighborhoods and emp
