Law Enforcement Perspectives (LEP)

Violence in the workplace is a serious health and safety issue. This course will
provide an overview of current thinking and best practices in workplace violence and active assailant prevention, response, and recovery. The focus will be on designing a proactive approach as well as a comprehensive response plan to meet the needs of organizations at risk. An interactive format, with group exercises and scenarios will be used to enhance the application of the material to simulated events. We will review actual workplace violence and active assailant case studies, taking a “lessons learned “approach. Participants will be asked to bring their experience, questions, and specific workplace violence and active assailant concerns to the training to enhance the practical value of the course.
