Workplace Violence Prevention Training
Protect Your People and Your Brand
Workplace violence is one of the fastest-growing safety threats facing businesses today. From verbal abuse and aggressive behavior to physical assaults and active shooter incidents, the impact can be devastating—both to your people and to your company’s reputation. In fact, nearly 1 in 3 active shooter incidents occur in the workplace.
At SafeHaven Security Group, we help businesses recognize warning signs, de-escalate risks, and develop proactive strategies to stop violence before it happens. Our Workplace Violence Prevention Training is designed for leaders, HR professionals, security staff, and employees at every level.
What Is Workplace Violence Prevention Training?
Workplace Violence Prevention Training is a structured program designed to help organizations recognize, respond to, and reduce the risk of violent incidents in the workplace. This training goes beyond basic safety protocols—it equips employees, managers, and security teams with the skills to identify early warning signs of aggression, apply de-escalation techniques, and implement proactive prevention strategies. By combining behavioral awareness, communication skills, and crisis response planning, Workplace Violence Prevention Training creates a safer work environment while reducing liability and protecting both people and brand reputation.

1. Assess the Situation
You need to know how bad the situation really is. Our Threat Assessment & Management Experts will assess the situation to understand the perceived Justifications, Alternatives, Consequences, and Abilities (JACA) from the perspective of the Person of Interest (POI). Some of all of these methodologies are used to help experts determine level of risks:
- Interviews with potential victim(s)
- Interviews with others who have information, sometimes an interview with the POI
- A thorough background check to discover information through public and paid resources
- Internet & social media research
-
2. De-Escalation
De-escalation and mitigation strategies customized to your specific needs. Just as each potentially violent situation is different, your organization is unique in its culture, policies, resources, and risk tolerance. For you, our experts will recommend the right tactics to de-escalate and mitigate each situation so that the risk is minimized or is completely eliminated.
We tailor guidelines for you to utilize in your organization so that you have standardized, pre-approved, strategies and tactics to consider for low-medium-and high risk situations you may face in the future.

Do you and the people around you know what to do? What if the POI came to your office... or your home while you are away at work?

Through age-appropriate discussions, our experts teach you and your family how to defend yourselves at home in the event of an intruder. We’ll show you how to improve your family’s privacy by reviewing your social media presence, privacy settings, and more to determine how much of your private and confidential information is publicly available, placing you at increased risk.
