What is Violence at Work?

• Verbal abuse
• Threats to personal safety
• Physical harm.

What Employers need to do about Violence to their workers?

Where such violent incidents are ‘foreseeable’, employers have a duty under Section 2 (Health and Safety at Work Act 1974), to identify the nature and extent of the risk, and to devise measures which provide a safe workplace and safe system of work.

In simple terms they must:

• Carry out risk assessments of the roles undertaken by staff
• Provide relevant training and supervision based on the operational needs of staff
• Accurately record and report Violent incidents
• Support staff in the immediate aftermath of an incident
• Learn from the incident and adopt safer practices.

SALVAS can help you meet your legal requirements in tackling Violence at Work, and ensure you have safer and more confident staff.
