About the event

Using FBI and Secret Service findings of past shooting  incidents, this program will describe characteristics of the aggressive individual, employee, customer, client, student, outsider - those individuals who sometimes go beyond "making threats",  to the actual act of committing violence.

This program will discuss:

  • OSHA/ MIOSHA Workplace Violence Prevention Guidelines
  • “Best Practices’ of the Secret Service / FBI / Department of Homeland Security (DHS)
  • How to document and assess “Warning Signs”, “Red Flags” of Risk
  • Strategies to Manage:
    • Threats
    • The "person making such threats"
  • The Components of a Comprehensive Workplace Violence Prevention System

Videos of actual cases and perpetrators will be used for detailed illustration and analysis.

High-Risk Termination

The program will also discuss how to manage high- risk terminations where the departing  employee has acted in threatening or very aggressive ways.

Strategies to “orchestrate” a pre-termination assessment of risk,  remote termination or on-site issues, how to conduct the termination meeting, the termination “script”, separation “packages”, monitoring employee post- termination, use of site security, reviewing access control plans, and coordination with security and law enforcement.
