Wrongful Death News
Workplace Violence Awareness And Prevention
Workplace murder is the leading killer of working females, (35% of their fatal work injuries) and the second leading killer of males. The problem is especially acute in service sector industries (e.g. retail establishments, taxi and limousine, police and security services). According to the figures released on August 3, 1995, by the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS)(1), 1,071 workers were murdered in the workplace in 1994, a slight decrease from 1,074 the previous year.
