Nearly 80 percent of respondents to a recent survey conducted by the American Society of Safety Engineers reported that they don't have a written workplace violence policy. Another 19 percent failed to indicate whether they had such a policy. Only about a quarter of respondents said that they planned to develop such a policy. However, 90 percent indicated that their organizations have written policies on weapons in the workplace. @ A summary of the survey is on SM Online.
