                   SURVEY OF WORKPLACE VIOLENCE PREVENTION, 2005

     Nearly five percent of the 7.1 million private industry business establishments in the 
United States had an incident of workplace violence within the 12 months prior to completing a 
new survey on workplace violence prevention (table 1).  Although about a third of these 
establishments reported that the incident had a negative impact on their workforce, the great 
majority of these establishments did not change their workplace violence prevention procedures 
after the incident; almost 9 percent of these establishments had no program or policy addressing 
workplace violence (tables 2 and 3).  

     These new data are from a special survey conducted by the Bureau of Labor Statistics 
(BLS), U.S. Department of Labor, for the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health 
(NIOSH), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.  The Survey of Workplace Violence 
Prevention looks at the prevalence of security features, the risks facing employees, employer 
policies and training, and related topics associated with maintaining a safe work environment.  
Data are available for private industry, State government, and local government by industry and 
size of establishment, that is, the number of workers employed.  Over 128 million workers were 
employed at the 7.4 million establishments represented by the survey.  



Incidence of Workplace Violence

* The survey asked whether an incident of workplace violence had occurred during the past 
year and, if so, how had the incident affected the staff and had the employer implemented 
changes to reduce the risk of further incidence.  While 5 percent of all establishments, 
including State and local governments, had a violent incident, half of the largest 
establishments (employing 1,000 or more workers) reported an incident.  In these largest 
establishments in private industry, goods-producing industries reported a higher 
percentage of co-worker workplace violence than service-providing industries.  Service-
providing industries reported much higher percentages of criminal, customer, and 
domestic violence than goods-producing industries (table 1).  

* State government reported higher percentages of all types of workplace violence in the 
past 12 months than did local government or private industry.  Thirty-two percent of all 
State government workplaces reported some form of workplace violence.  Local 
government reported 15 percent of their workplaces experienced some type of workplace 
violence in the past 12 months while private industry reported fewer than 5 percent (table 
1).

* Of those establishments reporting an incident of workplace violence in the previous 12 
months, 21 percent reported that the incident affected the fear level of their employees 
and twenty-one percent indicated that the incident affected their employees morale.  In 
State government workplaces reporting an incident of workplace violence in the previous 
12 months, 48 percent reported some type of negative effect due to the incident (table 2).

* The higher reported incidence of violence in State and local government workplaces may 
be attributed to their work environments.  These workplaces reported much higher 
percentages of working directly with the public, having a mobile workplace, working 
with unstable or violent persons, working in high crime areas, guarding valuable goods or 
property, and working in community based settings than did private industry (table 4).



Types of Security

* Seventy-two percent of establishments, employing 91 percent of workers, had at least one 
form of security  either security staff, physical security (such as locked entries), or 
electronic security (such as metal detectors).  While some form of security was nearly 
universal in establishments employing 1,000 workers or more, about two-thirds of the 
smallest establishments (with 1 to 10 workers) had such security (table A).

* Over 52 percent of all establishments had some form of electronic surveillance, most 
often burglar alarms, surveillance cameras, and motion detectors.  Use of electronic 
surveillance generally increased as size of establishment increased.  Forty-four percent 
of the smallest establishments had electronic surveillance while 91 percent of the largest 
establishments used some form of electronic surveillance (table 5).

* Almost 86 percent of the establishments reported they did not have a security staff (table 
6).  Over 73 million workers (57 percent of the workers covered) were employed in 
establishments without a security staff.  

* State governments tended to have more security precautions than either private industry 
or local governments.  For example, 36 percent of State governments used electronic 
identification badges or scanners for entry and exit, compared with only 6 percent of 
private industry establishments and 9 percent of local governments (table 5).  Similarly, 
security guards were more prevalent at State government work locations (table 6).

* Thirty-one percent of establishments had limited or controlled access to the workplace 
such as secured entries or locked doors during working hours.  The use of limited access 
ranged from 26 percent in the smallest establishments to over 83 percent in the largest 
establishments (table 7).

* Over half of the largest establishments surveyed reported the ability for employees and/or 
security staff to register or check in visitors (79 percent), verify employee identification 
(71 percent), stop entry due to restraining or protective orders (59 percent), and screen 
entry using photographs of persons (52 percent).  Thirty-seven percent of the largest 
workplaces reported the authority to arrest or detain for police and the authority to seize 
weapons (table 8).

* While 42 percent of the establishments surveyed reported they had a process or method 
for identifying potential or current employees with a history of violence, only 11 percent 
reported having a method or process for identifying clients, customers, visitors, or 
patients with a history of violence (table 9).



Programs and Policies

* Over 70 percent of United States workplaces do not have a formal program or policy that 
addresses workplace violence.  Programs or policies related to workplace violence were 
more prevalent among larger private establishments and governments.  State government 
establishments were by far more likely to have written or verbal policies or programs 
than local government and private industry establishments (table 10).

* In establishments that reported having a workplace violence program or policy, private 
industry most frequently reported addressing co-worker violence (82 percent).  Customer 
or client violence was the next most frequent subject of private industry policies or 
programs (71 percent), followed by criminal violence (53 percent) and domestic violence 
(44 percent).  While addressing customer/client and co-worker workplace violence the 
most, State governments addressed domestic violence (66 percent) more than criminal 
violence (53 percent), while equal numbers of local governments addressed domestic 
violence and criminal violence (47 percent) (table 11).

* Twenty percent of establishments in private industry provided training on preventing 
workplace violence while 32 percent of local government workplaces and 58 percent of 
State government workplaces provided this training.  Only 4 percent of all establishments 
trained on domestic violence and its impact on the workplace (table 12).

* Forty-three percent of private industry establishments report tracking the cost of 
workplace injuries and illnesses while less than half of those (20 percent) report tracking 
costs related to incidents of workplace violence.  State government workplaces reported 
that over 63 percent tracked costs of workplace injuries and illnesses and 33 percent 
tracked costs of workplace violence.  Local government workplaces reported 61 percent 
tracked costs of workplace injuries and illnesses while 36 percent tracked the costs 
associated with workplace violence.  In all cases, workers compensation costs were most 
frequently tracked; among other costs, absenteeism and property damage were tracked 
more often than other items (table 13).

     Charts and more detailed tables by industry sector can be found on the BLS website at 
https://www.bls.gov/iif/home.htm.  The link to these tables and charts can be found under 
Economic News Releases and Announcements.  The BLS plans to provide additional tables 
and charts on this site in the future.



Background of the Survey

     The BLS entered into an interagency agreement with NIOSH to conduct a survey of 
United States employers regarding their policies and training on workplace violence prevention.  
Very little information previously existed regarding the policies, training, and other related issues 
from the employer perspective.  Most workplace violence studies were from the employees or 
victims viewpoint.

     The survey defined workplace violence as violent acts directed towards a person at work 
or on duty (i.e. physical assaults, threats of assault, harassment, intimidation, or bullying).  
Workplace violence is classified in four types of situations: 

* Criminal - when the perpetrator has no legitimate relationship to the business or its 
employees and is usually committing a crime in conjunction with the violence (e.g. 
robbery, shoplifting, or trespassing);

* Customer or Client - when the perpetrator has a legitimate relationship with the business 
and becomes violent while being served by the business (e.g. customers, clients, patients, 
students, inmates, or any other group to which the business provides services);

* Co-Worker - when the perpetrator is an employee, past employee of the business, or 
contractor who works as a temporary employee of the business and who attacks or 
threatens another employee; and

* Domestic Violence - when the perpetrator, who has no legitimate relationship to the 
business, but has a personal relationship with the intended victim, threatens or assaults 
the intended victim at the workplace (e.g. family member, boyfriend, or girlfriend).

     This voluntary survey provides estimates of the number of establishments and employees 
covered by a workplace violence prevention program or policy.  The survey also collected data 
on the characteristics of the program or policy at the establishment; types of training on 
workplace violence and topics covered; whether an incident of workplace violence had occurred 
in the last 12 months; and whether establishments collect the costs associated with workplace 
violence.  The survey was designed to allow characterization of how the issue of workplace 
violence is addressed in U.S. workplaces and to provide researchers with information to develop 
educational interventions to improve workplace safety.

     The sample was stratified by 3-digit industry code and size class.  Industry was based on 
the North American Industry Classification System.  The following industries were included in 
this survey: Agriculture, Forestry, Fishing and Hunting (NAICS 11); Mining (21); Utilities (22); 
Construction (23); Manufacturing (31-33); Wholesale Trade (42); Retail Trade (44-45); 
Transportation and Warehousing (48-49); Information (51); Finance and Insurance (52); Real 
Estate and Rental and Leasing (53); Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services (54); 
Management of Companies and Enterprises (55); Administrative and Support and Waste 
Management and Remediation Service (56); Educational Services (61); Health Care and Social 
Assistance (62); Arts, Entertainment, and Recreation (71); Accommodation and Food Services 
(72); Other Services (except Public Administration) (81); and Public Administration (92).  The 
sample covered private industry, State government, and local government.  Size classes were 
separated by establishments with 1 to 10 employees; 11 to 49 employees; 50 to 249 employees; 
250 to 999 employees; and 1,000 or more employees.  The sample was selected from 
respondents to the 2003 BLS Survey of Occupational Injuries and Illnesses (SOII) augmented 
with State and local government units from States not collecting public sector data in the SOII.  
All 39,998 sample units were located in the 50 States and the District of Columbia.  

     The survey form was mailed to establishments in September 2005.   Employers were 
asked to respond for the past 12-month period; this period could vary from September 2004 to 
June 2006 when the survey data collection period ended.  The final response rate for this 
voluntary survey was 61 percent.

     The survey estimates are based on a scientifically selected probability sample, rather than 
a census of the entire population.  Because the data are based on a sample survey, the estimates 
probably differ from the figures that would be obtained from all units covered by the survey.  To 
determine the precision of each estimate, a standard error is calculated.  The standard error 
defines a range (confidence interval) around the estimate.  The approximate 95-percent 
confidence interval is the estimate plus or minus twice the standard error.  The standard error 
also can be expressed as a percent of the estimate, or the relative standard error.  For example, 
the 95-percent confidence interval for an estimate of 3,080,300 establishments having intruder or 
burglar alarms with a relative standard error of 1 percent would be 3,080,300 plus or minus 2 
percent (2 times 1 percent) or 3,018,690 to 3,141,910.  The user can be 95 percent confident that 
the "true" estimate falls within the confidence interval.  The total estimate for establishments 
covered in this survey of 7,361,560 establishments has an estimated relative standard error of 
less than 1 percent.  A relative standard error was calculated for each estimate from this survey 
and is available upon request.  All findings in this release have been tested and found to be 
statistically significant using the 95-percent confidence interval.
    
    The data are also subject to nonsampling error.  Mistakes in recording or coding the data, 
employer misunderstanding of questions, and definitional difficulties are general examples of 
nonsampling error.  Although not measured, nonsampling errors will always occur when 
statistics are gathered.  However, BLS has implemented quality assurance procedures to reduce 
nonsampling error, including detailed training of personnel involved in the nonresponse 
callbacks and callbacks resulting from editing of the data.

          Note: Because of rounding, data exclusion of nonclassifiable responses, omission of questionnaire response, and questions where more
     than one response is allowed, data do not sum to the totals.  Dashes indicate data that do not meet publication guidelines.  A measure of
     sampling variability for each estimate is available upon request.

          Note: Because of rounding, data exclusion of nonclassifiable responses, and omission of
     questionnaire response, data do not sum to the totals.  Dashes indicate data that do not meet
     publication guidelines.  A measure of sampling variability for each estimate is available upon

       2 Excludes farms with fewer than 11 employees. 
     
          Note: Because of rounding, data exclusion of nonclassifiable responses, omission of questionnaire response,
     and questions where more than one response is allowed, data do not sum to the totals.  Dashes indicate data that
     do not meet publication guidelines.  A measure of sampling variability for each estimate is available upon

          Note: Because of rounding, data exclusion of nonclassifiable responses, omission of questionnaire response, and questions
     where more than one response is allowed, data do not sum to the totals.  Dashes indicate data that do not meet publication
     guidelines.  A measure of sampling variability for each estimate is available upon request.

          Note: Because of rounding, data exclusion of nonclassifiable responses, omission of questionnaire response, and questions where more than one
     response is allowed, data do not sum to the totals.  Dashes indicate data that do not meet publication guidelines.  A measure of sampling variability
     for each estimate is available upon request.

     and questions where more than one response is allowed, data do not sum to the totals.  Dashes indicate data that
     do not meet publication guidelines.  A measure of sampling variability for each estimate is available upon

       2 Excludes farms with fewer than 11 employees. 
       3 Less than 0.1 percent.
     
          Note: Because of rounding, data exclusion of nonclassifiable responses, omission of questionnaire
     response, and questions where more than one response is allowed, data do not sum to the totals. 
     Dashes indicate data that do not meet publication guidelines.  A measure of sampling variability for
     each estimate is available upon request.

       3 Excludes farms with fewer than 11 employees. 
     
          Note: Because of rounding, data exclusion of nonclassifiable responses, omission of questionnaire response, and questions where more than one response is
     allowed, data do not sum to the totals.  Dashes indicate data that do not meet publication guidelines.  A measure of sampling variability for each estimate is

       2 Excludes farms with fewer than 11 employees. 
     
          Note: Because of rounding, data exclusion of nonclassifiable responses, omission of questionnaire response, and questions where more than one response is allowed, data
     do not sum to the totals.  Dashes indicate data that do not meet publication guidelines.  A measure of sampling variability for each estimate is available upon request.
