Violence in the workplace has risen to "epidemic" proportions according to the Centers of Disease Control. In this volume, Dr. Marc McElhaney, a specialist in workplace violence, presents a comprehensive guide that no manager can do without when having to prepare for these potentially dangerous and often disruptive events. These are situations that often seem to explode in the workplace without warning, when in fact, they have often long incubated outside the manager's awareness. Utilizing a risk management approach that focuses on the process of how these situations evolve, as opposed to an oversimplified presentation of "profiles", will provide the manager with the needed tools to prevent and effectively intervene, to ensure a safe and cost-effective resolution. This book takes a comprehensive view that covers the broad range of aggression control strategies that an organization can utilize, from the fundamental building blocks of a primary prevention program to specific techniques that the manager can use to defuse and stabilize situations that are already threatening to explode. In between, the author presents a step-by-step description of the assessment and intervention process that should occur when and if an organization is faced with a potentially dangerous set of circumstances. Specific high-risk situations, such as employee termination, are discussed in detail, along with strategies that Dr. McElhaney has found to be particularly effective when having to stabilize, control and ultimately ensure a safe and long-lasting conclusion. Utilizing an approach that combines his knowledge and experience from the fields of threat assessment, risk management, conflict resolution and crisis negotiation, the author focuses on an approach that not only addresses the organization's immediate needs, but which also strives for a resolution and management plan that addresses long-term safety concerns.

Recent reports suggest that violence in the workplace is an increasingly common problem for organisations, and that violence - or the threat of it - is one of the major sources of stress at work. Work-related Violence examines the causes and consequences of violence at work, and offers practical solutions for managers and organisational psychology professionals. Part I reviews the size and scope of the problem, sets out the need for intervention and policy, and considers issues such as the social psychology and organisational consequences of violence, and systems for monitoring, reducing and managing work-related violence. Part II describes case studies of organisations and settings in which such an approach has been applied. Four main occupational groups are considered: teachers, health care workers, post office workers and staff in bars and public houses. Work-related Violence will be of interest to managers, occupational psychologists and anyone concerned with violence in the workplace.
