Workplace violence has emerged as an important safety and health issue in
today's workplace. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration's (OSHA's)
response to the problem of workplace violence in certain industries has been
the production of OSHA's guidelines and recommendations to those industries
for implementing workplace violence prevention programs.
In 1996, OSHA published Guidelines for Preventing Workplace Violence for
Health Care and Social Service Workers. The guidelines are based on OSHA's
voluntary generic Safety and Health Program Management Guidelines.
In 1998, OSHA published Recommendations for Workplace Violence Prevention
Programs in Late-Night Retail Establishments. The recommendations are based
on OSHA's 1989 voluntary generic Safety and Health Program Management
Guidelines.
