claims that hundreds of
people are killed every year from workplace violence? Most

targets.
However, there have
been studies that have researched effective interventions and resources
developed. This program will focus on the most important goal- survival.
But once the danger is removed, there are important steps and actions
that can help preserve evidence, support the investigation and prepare
for the impact of the violation.

When Ex-employees Return Months
Later
In the mountains of NC, almost 6 months after Gus
McCurry was dismissed for assault and larceny at his job at Mountain
Spring Valley Water, he returned at pre-dawn hours of January of
2008, to shoot and kills his former employer, Thomas Scotchie.
While in the immediate aftermath of terminating an
disgruntled employee, there are often temporary security measures put
into place and nothing happens. But how can employers and security
professionals prepare for an assault that occurs weeks, months or even
years after they were last seen?
This webinar will provide case examples and
guidelines but will be more of an open discussion format to explore how
security can be maintained for the very unpredictable and open-ended
threat.
Learning
Objectives
1) Review of example cases where an employee
returned much later
2) Warning signs that an ex-employee may return
3) Maintaining on-going assessment of disgruntled
ex-employees

Basic Threat Assessment
"I am going make you
pay!!!!!!"
A ex-boyfriend, a
disgruntled client, a fired employee screams at you as you hang up the phone.
Is it real? What did they mean by that? Am I in danger?
This is when all that
assessment, training and a solid response planning shows its value. But you need
to know the answers NOW. Threat assessment is far from an exact science and this
is by no means a comprehensive or extensive training workshop.
The purpose of this webinar
is to introduce some principals of threat assessment-identify additional
information to be gathered and provide a rough framework for initial
determination of severity. It is vital to know when professional support is
required to assist review of a case and in establishing appropriate security
measures.
Learning Objectives
1) Pulling
together team for assessment
2) Identifying data and records
3) Interviews and investigations
4) Review of information, placing in metric
5) When to bring professional help
6) Limitations to threat assessments

Post Hire Records Checks
What
is more important-
What an applicant did
10 years ago or
What your employee did
last weekend?

are an industry standard for new applicants but isn't it more important to know
about any criminal activity while they are in your office, driving your vehicles
and representing your company?
A lawsuit was settled for $900,000
because of negligent supervision of a convicted drunk driver.
Employers are now held accountable for knowing
their employee's actions outside of work. Come see how school systems,
hospitals, safety sensitive positions and professionals are all being monitored.
Learning Objectives
1) Understand
the risks of Negligent Supervision and Retention
2) Review the legal constraints of post hire record checks including the FACT
Act (Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act of 2003)
3) Off-Duty Conduct Issues and Employee
Misconduct Investigation
4) Legal Basis for Termination for Off-Duty Issues
