What are Workplace Violence Policies?

Workplace violence policies define how organisations prevent, manage and respond to incidents of violence, threats or aggression in the workplace.

Violence can come from colleagues, clients, customers or members of the public. It may include verbal abuse, intimidation, physical assault or threatening behaviour. A clear policy ensures employees are protected, incidents are taken seriously and support is provided where needed.

What Do Workplace Violence Policies Cover?

A workplace violence policy typically includes:

• A definition of workplace violence and unacceptable behaviours

• Procedures for reporting incidents, threats or concerns

• Responsibilities of managers and staff in preventing and responding to violence

• Risk assessments of roles, locations or tasks with higher exposure risks

• Preventive measures, such as secure entry systems or working in pairs

• Guidance on handling conflict and de-escalation techniques

• Support for affected employees, including access to occupational health or counselling

• Links to health and safety, dignity at work and lone working policies

A clear workplace violence policy ensures staff know what behaviours will not be tolerated and how to respond if an incident occurs.

It also supports compliance with the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, which requires employers to protect employees from risks to their health and safety, including risks of violence.

By actively managing workplace violence risks, organisations can foster a safe, respectful and supportive culture. This reduces the likelihood of harm, improves staff morale and shows a clear commitment to protecting both employees and visitors.
