NEW YORK, Jan. 23, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Traliant, an innovator in online compliance training, today announced a new course, Workplace Violence Prevention designed to educate and empower employees with strategies to prevent violence in the workplace and protect themselves and others if it happens.
As workplace violence incidents continue to grow, safeguarding against violence is the responsibility of all employers, across every industry. Though many incidents remain unreported, Traliant's new whitepaper, "Beneath the Surface: Uncovering Employee Perspectives on Workplace Violence," dives into the reality of how almost 1 in 4 employees have witnessed workplace violence happening to another employee in the last five years.
Guidance from OSHA and court rulings underscore the imperative for employers to equip their workforce with effective and impactful workplace violence prevention training. In this new course, Traliant provides employees with the skills employees need to confidently report their concerns and respond effectively when situations escalate.
"Awareness and preparation are critical to preventing violence in the workplace and empowering employees to voice their concerns and navigate potentially dangerous situations," said Mike Dahir, CEO of Traliant. "To promote and maintain a safe and respectful work environment, employers must treat workplace violence prevention as a key pillar of their corporate culture and prioritize training in these key areas."
The course also helps employers comply with the latest laws in every state, including California's new workplace violence prevention law, which requires employers to implement workplace violence prevention plans, maintain logs of any violent incidents, and provide annual prevention training to workers.
Michael Johnson, Chief Strategy Officer at Traliant, added, "As workplace violence in the U.S. increases, providing effective training is one of the most effective ways employers can meet their obligation to maintain a safe workplace while also compliant with the latest court decisions and OSHA guidance. There are many diverse forms of violence in the workplace that employees need to be aware of, and a comprehensive training program is the best way to ensure employees are best prepared for any situation."
In this 25-minute course, employees are guided through the following topics relating to preventing workplace violence and protecting themselves if a scenario happens:
- What workplace violence is
- Types of workplace violence
- Red-flag behaviors
- How to report workplace violence concerns
- De-escalation techniques
- What to do if workplace violence occurs
- How employees can keep themselves safe in a workplace violence incident
All of Traliant's training courses can be translated into 100+ languages and customized to reflect an organization's unique workforce. This course is also customizable to cover training elements required by the California law, including the employer's workplace violence prevention plan and employer-specific reporting procedures.
