About the webinar: Brick by brick: How to create a scalable workplace violence prevention program
Building a multi-disciplinary global workplace violence prevention program is something many companies attempt but few actually accomplish. This presentation will describe how to build a successful workplace violence prevention program, and the way in which a multidisciplinary cross-functional threat assessment team works together throughout the lifecycle of a case. Robin will share global trends and patterns, as well as regional differences noted in APAC/EMEA/NorAm/LatAm. She will discuss current challenges to threat assessment and management, and save time for your questions.
