Emerging as one of the great concerns of the workplace today, violence at work has become a priority issue for many governments, trade unions and employers.

Increasingly, the public is becoming aware of the scale of the problem of violence at work and the different forms it takes--aggression, assault, sexual harassment, physical abuse, and homicide. The challenge of a violence-free working environment encompasses not only human rights but also labor, health and safety, and criminal justice issues. This book looks at existing legislation, guidelines, and practices and calls for a systematic approach to a problem that is now being taken up by more international agencies and that inflicts a heavy toll on so many workplaces.
