From Awareness to Action: Preventing and Responding to Active Shooters in the Workplace

Nearly 30% of all mass shootings in the U.S. happen at work, a startling number that continues to rise. Hundreds of workers are killed each year while countless others are injured and traumatized by on-the-job incidents of violence. Because these attacks can be carried out by nearly anyone, anywhere, all employers must prepare for the possibility of an active shooter in the workplace – and consider how to respond should a tragedy occur at their facilities.

Join three of the nation’s foremost experts – who have trained with responders to tragedies at Sandy Hook, Charleston, Virginia Tech, and Ft. Hood – for a sobering but critical session designed to teach employers, specifically in the education and retail industries, key practical lessons they should incorporate into their safety and security protocols. You’ll leave this interactive two-hour panel webinar, moderated by the co-chair of Fisher Phillips’ Workplace Safety Team, with a solid blueprint you can immediately put into effect to safeguard your most valuable assets – your employees. It goes without saying that this could be the most important training you attend all year.
