dc.description.abstractThis study examines Dallas-area employers' level of awareness and preparedness for an incident of workplace violence. Information was obtained from a review of literature and survey results from a sample of employers extracted from a cross section of Dallas-area industries and firms. Chapters I, II, and III contain general and statistical information introducing the subject of workplace violence, a review of the literature, and the methodology used in the study. Chapter IV presents the results of the research. Chapter V provides further discussion regarding the major findings of the study and recommends that employers establish sound prevention and management policies to help offset the potential danger and expense of violent workplace incidents.
