2022 Workplace Violence Virtual Master Class: Active Shooter Preparation and Response Strategies

Overview

BONUS: Receive a FREE copy of our Active Shooter Response Kit with your registration. In active shooter situations, there are measures workers can take to limit the damage and to save lives both before and during these traumatic incidents. Print and display the posters in this kit to train and remind your workers how to remain safe during an active shooter event.

Although shootings with high-profile victims or multiple casualties make headlines, gun-related workplace violence frequently strikes on a much smaller scale, involving a single shooter and a single employee (for example, in a robbery).

Regardless of the cause or the number of people involved, these incidents generally fall into the category of “critical incidents,” and you can train workers to respond to them in ways that minimize the harm they suffer as a result.

Employees must be aware of the warning signs and as the employer, you must empower them to speak up if they think something is wrong. Your organization must have a response plan in place, and employees have to be educated on how to respond.

When it comes to protecting your business and its most valuable asset—your employees—preparation and response need to be top of mind.  And this virtual Master Class will teach you how to prepare, react, respond to active shooter threats. Arm your staff with the knowledge they need today, to protect your business tomorrow!

At the conclusion of this program, participants will be able to:

• Recognize the warning signs and indicators that an employee may be at risk for acting out in a violent way;
• Prepare supervisors and managers to respond to concerning behavior;
• Recognize nonverbal communication strategies for communicating in a potentially volatile situation;
• Create a response plan to an active shooter incident;
• Evaluate the safety of your facility and use the information you have collected to determine whether you’re at a low, moderate, or high risk for security breaches;
• Understand what to do if your facility is inhabitable during recovery;
• Understand how to respond to employees and the community that were impacted by the violence;
• Draft an Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) 300 log to document the incident;
• And more!
