At Braun Consulting Group we have been involved in providing solutions for workplace violence for several years now. This includes all behaviors, and circumstances that threaten an employee's physical safety, including verbal, sexual or physical assaults, threats, robberies, thefts, coercion, intimidation, stalking, and harassment. One of the most common known causes of workplace violence today is domestic violence that spills over into the workplace. The U.S. Department of Labor reports that the alleged assailant in about one in every six homicides of women at work is a current or former husband or boyfriend.
Domestic violence costs employers billions of dollars each year.
