Most workers cannot recognize the potential warning signs of on-the-job violence, according to a new study commissioned by the American Association of Occupational Health Nurses, Inc. (AAOHN).
"Nearly 20 percent of the entire workforce claimed they have experienced an episode of workplace violence first-hand, yet the majority still do not know what to look for when it comes to determining potential offender characteristics," says AAOHN President Susan A. Randolph.
