The truth is, workplace violence can occur anywhere, and failing to recognize early warning signs can put employees at risk. And, workplace violence is much more than physical – aggressive body language or threats that cause fear are also violent.
As California continues to lead the charge on employee protections with SB 553, requiring Workplace Violence Prevention Plans, it’s more critical than ever for organizations to understand how to identify and mitigate potential threats. Whether you’re in California or not, this is an important session that will break down the law and provide practical strategies for fostering a safer work environment.

During this presentation, attendees will:
- Identify the different types of workplace violence and the risk factors associated with each.
- Assess workplace policies and procedures to ensure compliance with workplace violence prevention laws.
