An incident of workplace violence could have lifelong consequences for employees and their families. Human Resources offers Workplace Violence/Domestic Violence Prevention Training for all employees. Sessions are conducted by Sam Lunetta, retired University Police lieutenant. Participation at this training is mandated for all public employees under New York State Labor Law Section 27-b.
Topics covered include: recognizing warning signs for potential violence, assessing risk in various work settings, what to do and not do if presented with a violent situation, and campus resources available to prevent violence.
One hour “Basic Training Sessions” will be held in Cleveland Hall 418 from 10:00 to 11:00 a.m. on Thursday, February 10, and Thursday, February 17. An expanded “Refresher Class,” (includes “What Would You Do” scenarios) will be held on Thursday, March 3, from 10:00 a.m. to noon. Visit the HR web site or call ext. 4822 to register.
This mandated training is also available online for those unable to attend the group sessions. Employees may access the program on ANGEL. (Go to: Campus Group Section, and select “Workplace Violence Prevention Group.")
