Clause 6: Planning the WVPI program – ANSI/ASIS WVPI AA-2020 Workplace Violence and Active Assailant

ANSI/ASIS WVPI AA-2020 Workplace Violence and Active Assailant 6.2.8: 6.2.8 Additional prevention and intervention strategies and protocols

In implementing the program, the organization should weigh adopting further security, employment or management practices that support prevention, including: sound employment screening with rigorous interviews and background checks for employees and contractors where suited to the role (where lawful, checks may cover criminal and civil records, drug tests, credit status and social media); physical protection such as controlled entry and handling of visitors, intruder detection with monitored alarms, video and other monitoring where the law allows, and workspaces designed and strengthened for protection; rules and habits that build a culture of professionalism and respect among employees, between staff and managers, and with customers, clients, vendors and others, including management and discipline that enforce behavior standards at every level, encourage early intervention and curb harassment, bullying and the like; a way to settle or mediate everyday friction between colleagues; and a scheme to tell staff caught up in a violence case what help is available through the EAP and outside agencies.
