On today’s episode of What’s Work Got to Do With It?, we are going to hear from Lynda Enos on the topic of Workplace Aggression. What have we learned so far? Her talk was given at our June 7th Spring symposia where five speakers discussed best practices and strategies to prevent, identify and safely mitigate aggressive behavior and violence in the workplace. The goal of our symposia was to discuss job and industry risk factors of workplace aggression and to provide guidance for workplaces.
