Threat Detector: Your Role in Workplace Violence

Employees play a very important role in preventing violence in the workplace. They're on the front lines; they may be the first ones to see behavior in a co-worker, customer or vendor that makes them uncomfortable or even scared. The Threat Detector program will clarify what these behaviors are and what action to take when they see them. The goal is to get the right people in your company quickly involved to handle the potential threat. This ultimately results in a safer workplace for all.
