Recent events throughout the U.S. have employers on even higher alert for workplace violence issues. Employers continue to grapple with what measures they should take - or are legally obligated to take - to keep employees safe from harm, including under the federal Occupational Health and Safety Act's “general duty" clause, which requires employers to provide a safe workplace for employees.

Discussion topics include:

• What policies and practices should employers have in place to increase awareness, recognition and reporting of actual or potential incidents of workplace violence
• What are some warning signs of workplace violence
• How best can employers assess the risk of workplace violence and deploy appropriate measures when potential issues arise
