Employers have a legal obligation to accommodate the reasonable requirements of their employees while maintaining a safe work environment, but the possibility of a violent crime occurring in the workplace is real. In some cases, an employee's behavior can raise legitimate safety concerns, but employers must carefully balance the concern for safety with the rights of individuals. Join our experienced presenters for insights and best practices on preventing violence in the workplace, including a discussion of the following topics:

  • Disability accommodation and discrimination
  • Behavior and threat assessment
  • Fostering communication
  • Supervisor training and employee awareness of support resources
  • Crisis management and emergency response plans
