AGS offers our consultants to help educate your personnel, helping to protect your organization. When workplace violence strikes, you have a lot to lose! Violence in the workplace is a huge liability and a fiscal disaster waiting to happen. Unless you and your company take “reasonable action” to ensure the safety of your employees, you could face lawsuits, a damaged company image, and potential loss of life.
Our goal at AGS is to help encourage business owners, corporate leadership, managers and human resources personnel to implement programs that identify the potential risks of workplace violence and to implement corrective measures. We believe in helping to create a security culture where everyone takes ownership and responsibility for workplace security. We just don’t identify a single strategy or provide a “one size fits all” solution, we recognize every business displays their own challenges. AGS has the experience and capabilities to recommend a combination of strategies to improve workplace security and minimize the risk for violence.
By recognizing the hazards that lead to violent incidents and implementing appropriate prevention and control measures, employers will improve the safety of their workers. Although not every incident can be prevented, the severity of injuries sustained by workers can be reduced. AGS’ practical workplace violence mitigation programs can significantly reduce this serious threat to worker safety.
How we do it…
We identify the following risk factors that may lead to violent encounters:
• Does your company exchange goods for cash?
• Does your company maintain proper lighting in the employee parking area?
• Do you have security in place to monitor Close Circuit Television (CCTV) cameras that can ID potential problems before they happen?
• Do you encourage your team members to “say something” if they “see something”?
• Do you have a timely and streamlined reporting policy in place?
• As an employer or business owner, do you appropriate the necessary resources to enforce a workplace violence prevention program?
At AGS, we also aim to assist your team with implementing a security culture. Methods we use to achieve this goal include:
• Provide information to your team allowing them to recognize warning signs for potential workplace violence
• Provide customized training as the result of an extensive assessment of your existing workplace violence mitigation program
• Identify existing risks and the potential for violence within the workplace
• Identify security needs and vulnerabilities
• Make recommendations for consideration implementing new programs
• Evaluate facility design and how to increase its level of security at minimal cost
• Partner with your team to be an ongoing resource for workplace violence issues
