Mark Your Calendar: November 14 SAFEGUARD - Personal Security for Safety Professionals

As safety professionals, many of us have been threatened with violence on the job, in parking lots, etc. Recently , a safety pro on a huge downtown Pittsburgh project was injured by a co-worker to the point he required hospitalization.

According to OSHA, workplace violence is the third leading cause of fatal occupational injuries in the United States. In 2023, there were 740 fatalities due to violent acts, with homicides accounting for 61.9% of these incidents. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, 20,050 workers in the private industry experienced trauma from nonfatal workplace violence in 2020.
