Assessing the Risk of Violence in Today’s Workplace Environment: A SIA Education@ISC West Session

A violent incident within your organization can be devastating to employees, clients and business operations. Assessing the risk of violence and implementing preventive strategies make up an effective process in the reduction of violent incidents. Traditional methods for violence reduction are not always effective and do not help employees to be engaged in the process. In this SIA Education@ISC session from ISC West 2019, Ben Scaglione, senior consultant at DVS Security Solutions, and David LaRose, system director of public safety at Lee Health, share a more strategic and focused approach.
